Compiles and prepares an HP Business BASIC/V program in Compatibility Mode. HP Business BASIC/V is not part of the 900 Series HP 3000 Computer System Fundamental Operating Software and must be purchased separately. (CM)
BBASICPREP infile[,[progfile][,listfile]]
infile Actual file designator of the BSAVE file containing the BBASIC program to be compiled. Formal file designator is BBCIN. progfile Actual file designator of the program file to which the prepared program segments are written. When progfile is omitted, the MPE V/E Segmenter creates the program file, which will reside in the temporary file domain as $OLDPASS. If you do create your own program file, you must do so in one of two ways o Using the MPE/iX BUILD command and specifying a file code of 1029 or PROG and a numextents value of 1. This file is then used by the PREP command. o Specifying a nonexistent file in the progfile parameter, in which case a temporary job file of the correct size and type is created. listfile Actual file designator of the file on which program the listing is written. This can be any ASCII output file. Formal file designator is BBCLIST. Default is $STDLIST.
The formal file designators used in this command (BBCIN and BBCLIST) cannot be backreferenced as actual file designators in the command parameter list. For further information, refer to the "IMPLICIT FILE COMMANDS FOR SUBSYSTEMS" discussion of the MPE/iX FILE command.
The BBASICPREP command compiles and prepares a program from a BSAVE file generated by the BBASIC interpreter. If you omit the progfile parameter, the prepared program segments are stored in the system-defined temporary file $OLDPASS. If you want to save the prepared program in a file other than $OLDPASS, you may either create a file and specify its file name on the BBASICPREP command line, or specify a nonexistent progfile. A BSAVE program file can be created from within the BBASIC interpreter after it is written, by using the BBASIC interpreter command >SAVE filename. The program may be compiled with the BBASICOMP command, then prepared with the MPE/iX command PREP, and executed with the MPE/iX command RUN. This command may be issued from a session, job, or program. It may not be used in BREAK. Pressing [Break] suspends the execution of this command. Entering RESUME continues the execution.
To compile and prepare a program named MYPROG from the BBASIC BSAVE file named MYCOMDS, and send the listing to the standard list device, enter BBASICPREP MYCOMDS,MYPROG
