FORMDEF= fdefname
| Specifies the complete file name (in OS/390, MVS and VSE, the member
| name) of the form definition. The
fdefname can be from 1 to 8 alphanumeric or
| national characters. Unlike PSF for OS/390, PSF/MVS, PSF/VM, and PSF/VSE,
| ACIF does not require the name to begin with a F1 prefix, but if the name does
| begin with F1, you cannot omit it.
| A form definition defines how a page of data is placed on a form, the number of
| copies of a page, any modifications to that group of copies, paper source, and
| duplexing, as well as other functions. ACIF uses a form definition only to
| retrieve resources; it does not use a form definition to convert data streams.
| EXAMPLE
| This example specifies F1USER10 as the form definition:
|
FORMDEF=F1USER1ð
| The form definition you ask ACIF to retrieve may be located:
|
Ÿ
Inline in the file
|
Ÿ
In a user library referenced in the USERLIB parameter (OS/390 and MVS
| only)
|
Ÿ
In a library referenced in the FDEFLIB parameter (OS/390, MVS, and VM)
|
Ÿ
In a library referenced in the // LIBDEF PHASE,SEARCH=(...) DLBL JCL
| statement (VSE)
| Using Form Definitions from an OS/390 or MVS User Library:
| You can instruct ACIF to retrieve a form definition from your user library instead
| of from a library specified in the FDEFLIB parameter. To use a form definition
| from a user library, you must:
|
Ÿ
Reference the user library containing the form definition in the USERLIB
| parameter
|
Ÿ
Specify the name of the form definition in the FORMDEF parameter
|
Using Inline Form Definitions: To use an inline form definition, you must do
| the following:
|
Ÿ
Include an inline form definition in the file.
|
Ÿ
If you specify the FORMDEF parameter, the name of the inline form
| definition must match the name of the specified form definition, or you must
| specify FORMDEF=DUMMY.
|
Ÿ
If a form definition resource is included inline with the data, the file must be
| identified as containing carriage control characters. If the length of the
| records in the form definition is less than or equal to the logical-record
| length defined for the file, you can specify fixed-length records for the
| record format. If the length of the records in the form definition is greater
| than the logical-record length defined for the file, you must:
| – In OS/390 and MVS, specify variable length records for the record
| format (variable blocked with ANSI carriage control characters [VBA] or
| variable blocked with machine carriage control characters [VBM]).
| – In VM, specify variable length records for the record format.
