compile-catalog Command

The compile-catalog BASIC program (CTRL+XC from within the Update Processor) compiles and catalogs a BASIC program.

Syntax

compile-catalog file.reference itemlist*

Synonym(s)

compile

catalog

The compile-catalog command can also be used from the TCL prompt, when provided with a file and item-ID, or list of item-IDs. All options used with this command are passed to both the compile and catalog programs.

WARNING

The compile-catalog program resides in the dm,bp, file. If it is not compiled and cataloged, the Update Processor CTRL+XC does not work properly. To recompile it, go to the dm account and type compile bp compile-catalog at the TCL prompt, followed by catalog bp compile-catalog.
