Format

LBR$INSERT_KEY library_index ,key_name ,txtrfa [, flags]


RETURNS


OpenVMS usage: cond_value
type: longword (unsigned)
access: write only
mechanism: by value

Longword condition value. Most utility routines return a condition value. Condition values that this routine can return are listed under Condition Values Returned.


Arguments

library_index


OpenVMS usage: longword_unsigned
type: longword (unsigned)
access: read only
mechanism: by reference

Library control index returned by the LBR$INI_CONTROL library routine. The library_index argument is the address of the longword that contains the index.

key_name


OpenVMS usage: longword_unsigned
type: longword (unsigned)
access: read only
mechanism: by reference

Name of the new key you are inserting.

If the library uses binary keys, the key_name argument is the address of an unsigned longword containing the value of the key.

If the library uses ASCII keys, the key_name argument is the address of a string descriptor of the key with the following argument characteristics:
Argument Characteristics Entry
OpenVMS usage char_string
type character string

mechanism by descriptor

txtrfa


OpenVMS usage: vector_longword_unsigned
type: longword (unsigned)

LBR$M_SYM_GROUP = 0x2 Group symbol attribute

If this argument is not present, the normal NonGroup-Global type is the assumed type.


Description

The LBR$INSERT_KEY routine inserts a new key in the current library index. You cannot call LBR$INSERT_KEY within the user-supplied routine specified in LBR$SEARCH or LBR$GET_INDEX.

Condition Values Returned

LBR$_DUPKEY Index already contains the specified key.
LBR$_ILLCTL Specified library control index not valid.
LBR$_INVRFA Specified RFA does not point to valid data.

Description

This routine maps a module, with the given txtrfa, into process P2 memory space and returns the virtual address where the module is mapped and the module size.

Unlike other LBR services that use RMS services, LBR$MAP_MODULE also uses system services. Because of this, the secondary status for error returns is placed in LBR$$GL_SUBSTS. Use this secondary status to find additional status when an error is returned.


LBR$OPEN

The LBR$OPEN routine opens an existing library or creates a new one.

Format

LBR$OPEN library_index [,fns] [,create_options] [,dns] [,rlfna] [,rns] [,rnslen]

Arguments

library_index


OpenVMS usage: longword_unsigned
type: longword (unsigned)
access: read only
mechanism: by reference

Library control index returned by the LBR$INI_CONTROL routine. The library_index argument is the address of a longword containing the index.

fns


OpenVMS usage: char_string
type: character string
access: read only
mechanism: by descriptor

File specification of the library. The fns argument is the address of a string descriptor pointing to the file specification. Unless the OpenVMS RMS NAM block address was previously supplied in the LBR$INI_CONTROL routine and contained a file specification, this argument must be included. Otherwise, the Librarian returns an error (LBR$_NOFILNAM).

create_options


OpenVMS usage: vector_longword_unsigned
type: longword (unsigned)
access: read only
mechanism: by reference

Library characteristics. The create_options argument is the address of an array of 20 longwords that define the characteristics of the library you are creating. If you are creating a library with LBR$C_CREATE, you must include the create_options argument. The following table shows the entries that the array must contain. Each programming language provides an appropriate mechanism for accessing the listed symbols.

dns


OpenVMS usage: char_string
type: character string
access: read only
mechanism: by descriptor

Default file specification. The dns argument is the address of the string descriptor that points to the default file specification. See the OpenVMS Record Management Services Reference Manual for details about how defaults are processed.

rlfna


OpenVMS usage: longword_unsigned
type: longword (unsigned)
access: read only
mechanism: by reference

Related file name. The rlfna argument is the address of an RMS NAM block pointing to the related file name. You must specify rlfna for related file name processing to occur. If a related file name is specified, only the file name, type, and version fields of the NAM block are used for related name block processing. The device and directory fields are not used. See the OpenVMS Record Management Services Reference Manual for details on processing related file names.

rns


OpenVMS usage: char_string
type: character string
access: write only
mechanism: by descriptor

Resultant file specification returned. The rns argument is the address of a string descriptor pointing to a buffer that is to receive the resultant file specification string. If an error occurs during an attempt to open the library, the expanded name string is returned instead.

rnslen


OpenVMS usage: longword_signed
type: longword (signed)
access: write only
mechanism: by reference

Length of the resultant or expanded file name. The rnslen argument is the address of a longword receiving the length of the resultant file specification string (or the length of the expanded name string if there was an error in opening the library).

Description

You can call this routine only after you call LBR$INI_CONTROL and before you call any other LBR routine except LBR$OUTPUT_HELP.

When the library is successfully opened, the LBR routine reads the library header into memory and sets the default index to 1.

If the library cannot be opened because it is already open for a write operation, LBR$OPEN retries the open operation every second for a maximum of 30 seconds before returning the RMS error, RMS$_FLK, to the caller.


Condition Values Returned

LBR$_ERRCLOSE Error. When the library was last modified while opened for write access, the write operation was interrupted. This left the library in an inconsistent state.
LBR$_ILLCREOPT Requested create options not valid or not supplied.
LBR$_ILLCTL Specified library control index not valid.
LBR$_ILLFMT Specified library format not valid.
LBR$_ILLFUNC Specified library function not valid.
LBR$_LIBOPN Specified library already open.
LBR$_NOFILNAM Error. The fns argument was not supplied or the RMS NAM block was not filled in.
LBR$_OLDLIBRARY Success. The specified library has been opened; the library was created with an old library format.
LBR$_OLDMISMCH Requested library function conflicts with old library type specified.
LBR$_TYPMISMCH Library type does not match the requested type.
