Including Assignment Files

Within an assignment file, you can use the #FILE directive to include the contents of another assignment file.

Syntax

#FILEFileName

FileName—name of the assignment file to include

Description

The file named on a #FILE directive is not copied into the current assignment file. It is handled as a separate assignment file and must have a section header on the first non-comment line. After processing the #FILE directive, processing in the parent assignment file continues in the current section there.

Multiple #FILE directives are allowed.

#FILE

For example, running an application in character mode requires a special group of settings for widget mappings. Default settings for character mode are contained in the file usyschr.asn which is included in the distribution kit.

To include the definitions in this file, use the following directive: 

#FILE USYSADM:usyschr.asn
