SET DEFINE Command
SEGMENT size Specifies the size, in pages, of an extended
memory segment for FastSort to use; it
must be at least 64%, but not over 90% of
the memory not appropriated by the
operating system
If you specify SEGMENT, you must omit
MODE. The default is the same as MODE
AUTOMATIC.
SUBSORTS
( DEFINE-name [ , DEFINE-name ] ... )
Specifies one or more DEFINE names, of
class SUBSORT, available for use by this
DEFINE
Those DEFINEs must exist, but are not
checked for validity until the sort begins.
SWAP file-name Specifies a swap file for use by the
extended memory segment
If the file already exists, it must be
unstructured. A volume name alone is
acceptable if it is on the local system. The
default is a temporary file on the same
volume as the scratch file, if that file is
local, or a temporary file on $SYSTEM, if it
is not.
