A ALL libraries to be decompressed
E EXIT this procedure
* Enter letter or number(s) of libraries to be decompressed
(Separate multiple entries with a comma):
2. Enter the appropriate letter or the numbers of the libraries you want to
decompress. To decompress all libraries, the process takes approximately
one-half hour.
4.7.3 Using LIBDECOMP.COM Interactively
You can execute LIBDECOMP.COM interactively to decompress up to eight
libraries at a time by listing the names of the libraries you want to decompress
as parameters on the command line. (You can decompress all the libraries by
omitting the /PARAMETERS qualifier.)
Be sure you do not include the file extensions. For example, to decompress the
VAXCRTL.OLB, DISKQUOTA.HLB, and LIB.MLB libraries interactively, enter
the following command:
$ @SYS$UPDATE:LIBDECOMP VAXCRTL DISKQUOTA LIB
4.7.4 Using LIBDECOMP.COM in Batch
You can also execute LIBDECOMP.COM in batch mode to decompress up to eight
libraries at a time by listing the names of the libraries you want to decompress
as parameters on a command line that includes the SUBMIT command.
Be sure to separate the library names with commas and do not include the file
extensions. For example, to decompress VAXCRTL.OLB, DISKQUOTA.HLB, and
LIB.MLB as a batch job, enter the following command:
$ SUBMIT/NOTIFY/PARAMETERS=(VAXCRTL, DISKQUOTA, LIB)-
_$ SYS$UPDATE:LIBDECOMP
Note
When you enter the command for a batch job, be sure you enclose the list
