SET DEFMODE Command
SET DEFMODE Command
Use the SET DEFMODE command to enable or disable the use of DEFINEs in the
current TACL process.
ON
enables the use of DEFINEs in, and the propagation of DEFINEs from, the current
TACL process. This means that unless you change the DEFMODE setting in a
RUN command, the process started by that command has an initial DEFMODE
setting of ON, and all DEFINEs are propagated to that new process.
OFF
disables the use of all DEFINES in the current TACL and the propagation of
DEFINEs from it. When DEFMODE is OFF, the current TACL cannot use any
DEFINEs. Unless you change the DEFMODE setting in a RUN command, the
process started by that command has an initial DEFMODE setting of OFF, and no
DEFINEs are propagated to that new process.
Consideration
DEFMODE is always set ON when TACL is first started, and whenever you log on from
the logged-off state.
SET DEFMODE { ON | OFF }
