3.13.1 Points to note
System-generated pages (such as PLABEL or OPRINFO) are printed using the STOCK-
SET's SYSPAGE command that is in effect. If no STOCKSET is in effect, cluster MAIN is
used.
3.13.2 Example
The STOCKSET statement is similar to the PDL and CME statements because it can be
compiled separately.
BILLS:STOCKSET
ASSIGN = ('YELLOW' , COVER),
ASSIGN = ('WHITE' , (BODY, SUMMARY)),
ASSIGN = (('GREEN' , LATE), ('MAIN', DISCON)),
INIFEED = COVER, /*INIFEED = 'YELLOW' WORKS AS WELL*/
SYSPAGE = COVER;
In the example above, a stockset called BILLS is created and consists of four stocks: YEL-
LOW, WHITE, GREEN, and MAIN. Stock references are created for these four stocks;
COVER for YELLOW, BODY and SUMMARY for WHITE, LATE for GREEN and DISCON
for MAIN. In the absence of a specific option of the FEED command at the start of the re-
port, INIFEED directs output to feed from the stock referred to by AUX. A billing application
makes use of this stockset by coding an OUTPUT STOCKS=BILLS statement in its JDE,
and through successive DJDE FEED records, directs feeding the cover, body and summa-
ry, late notice, and disconnect pages from the stock referenced by COVER, BODY, SUM-
MARY, LATE and DISCON, respectively. Alternatively, the DJDE FEED record could refer
directly to stocks by name (i.e. FEED='YELLOW'). Note that the use of stock references is
preferred over stock names.
