MXCMP Environment Variable
•
This command places the module file in the same OSS directory as the application
executable:
mxCompileUserModule -g moduleLocal sqlprog.o
•
These settings affect statement recompilation at execution time:
mxCompileUserModule -d AUTOMATIC_RECOMPILATION=ON \
-d SIMILARITY_CHECK=ON sqlprog.exe
MXCMP Environment Variable
To specify an alternate location of the SQL/MX compiler (MXCMP) instead of the
default location of /G/system/system/mxcmp, use the MXCMP environment variable.
This environment variable is used by nmcobol and the mxCompileUserModule
utility and enables you to direct them to use another version of the MXCMP
executable.
To set the MXCMP environment variable, enter this command at an OSS prompt before
invoking the nmcobol or mxCompileUserModule utility:
export MXCMP="/G/usr/mydir/mxcmp"
For more information, see the Open System Services Shell and Utilities Reference
Manual.
MXCMPUM Environment Variable
To specify an alternate location of the compiler utility (mxCompileUserModule)
instead of the default location of
/usr/tandem/sqlmx/bin/mxCompileUserModule, use the MXCMPUM
environment variable. This environment variable is used by the nmcobol utility and
enables you to direct nmcobol to use another version of the mxCompileUserModule
utility.
To set the MXCMPUM environment variable, enter this command at an OSS prompt
before invoking the nmcobol utility:
export MXCMPUM="/G/usr/mydir/mxCompileUserModule"
For more information, see the Open System Services Shell and Utilities Reference
Manual.
Compiling a Module Definition File
Embedded SQL application source files preprocessed with the -x and -m options or
that set the SQLMX_PREPROCESSOR_VERSION=800 environment variable continue to
generate module definition files as done in SQL/MX Release 1.8 and previous
releases.
To compile a module definition file, use the SQL/MX compiler mxcmp command on the
module definition (.m) file. The SQL/MX compiler places a compiled user module file in
