The PVERIFY command compares the object code of an mvBASIC program with its integral check-sum in order to determine whether the object code has been changed or become corrupted. This command verifies only the executable code
Format
PVERIFY filename progname |
Parameter(s)
filename |
Name of the file containing mvBASIC programs. |
progname |
Name of the program whose object code is to be verified. |
Description
PVERIFY performs the same function as the ? command in the mvBASIC Debugger. When a program is compiled, a check-sum value is calculated for the object code generated. PVERIFY compares the current version of the object code to the check-sum. If there have been no changes, the following message displays:
[429] 'ITEM' PROGRAM OBJECT VERIFIES; VERSION B |
For example:
>PVERIFY BP PROG1 [429] 'PROG1' PROGRAM OBJECT VERIFIES; VERSION B |
B lists the version number of the current operating system.
If there have been any changes, the following message displays:
[430] 'ITEM ' PROGRAM OBJECT DOES NOT VERIFY. |
If a program does not verify, you should either recompile it or restore it from the last good file-save using the SEL-RESTORE command.
