Entering the TACL RUN Command
Entering the TACL RUN Command 
To run an SQL program file from a TACL process, use the TACL RUN (or RUND to 
invoke the INSPECT program) command. You can enter a RUN command either 
explicitly or implicitly using this syntax. 
RUN
runs the program file without invoking the Inspect debugger. 
RUND
runs the program file under the control of the Inspect symbolic debugger. 
program-file
is the name of the SQL program file. For an explicit RUN command, TACL qualifies 
a partially qualified file name using the =_DEFAULTS DEFINE. For an implicit RUN 
command, TACL searches for program-file in the TACL #PMSEARCHLIST 
variable. 
run-option
is a RUN command run option as described in the TACL Reference Manual.
argument 
is an argument as described in the C/C++ Programmer’s Guide. Separate 
arguments in a list using spaces, not commas.
For example, this RUN command runs the program file named sqlprog and specifies 
the NAME, OUT, and NOWAIT run options: 
RUN sqlprog / NAME $sqlrun, OUT $s.#sqlist, NOWAIT / 
This RUND command runs the program file named $disk.sql.sqlprog under the 
control of the Inspect debugger: 
RUND $disk.sql.sqlprog
For more information about the RUN command, see the TACL Reference Manual.
Running a Program in the OSS Environment
To run an SQL program file in the OSS environment, enter the program file name at the 
OSS shell prompt. You can also use the OSS run command to run a program file 
using HP attributes (for example, a CPU or priority for the process). For information 
about the run command, see the Open System Services Shell and Utilities Reference 
Manual or the run (1) reference pages.
