Consideration—SHOW DEFINE
Consideration—SHOW DEFINE
If you do not specify an attribute or an asterisk, SHOW DEFINE displays all attributes 
with a current value and warns you to specify values for required attributes without 
current values.
Attributes whose values violate consistency rules are flagged with an asterisk (*).
Examples—SHOW DEFINE
This example displays the CLASS attribute from the working attributes set:
>>SHOW DEFINE CLASS;
 CLASS MAP
This example displays the current set of working attributes. In the example, no 
value is currently assigned to the FILE attribute. You must supply a value for the 
FILE attribute to add a DEFINE because the working attribute set does not provide 
a default value.
>>SHOW DEFINE *;
 CLASS MAP
 FILE ??
Current attribute set is incomplete
SHOW DEFMODE Command
SHOW DEFMODE is an SQLCI command that displays the current DEFMODE setting. 
(SHOW DEFMODE is similar to the TACL command SHOW DEFMODE.) DEFMODE 
is an attribute of a process that controls whether you can create DEFINEs from the 
process and whether DEFINEs are propagated when the process starts another 
process. For more information, see DEFINEs on page D-27.
Example—SHOW DEFMODE
This example displays the current DEFMODE:
>>SHOW DEFMODE ;
Defmode ON
SHOW DEFMODE ;
