Constructing a query input file
To submit an impact analysis query using remote build, you need a query input file. This input file is passed to BCCIAQRY in your remote build request.
About this task
- A configuration section specifying the impact analysis high-level qualifier (IAHLQ) and the query type (TYPE=). For more information about the impact analysis high-level qualifier, see Sample JCL to allocate the impact analysis data set.
- A query input section.
HLQ=IAHLQ
TYPE=queryType
MCHAO.TSC.CBL PGM1
MCHAO.TSC.CBL PGM2
The content of the query input section varies according to the query type. The following table lists valid query types, their function, the input needed for the query type, and an example of valid input for the query type.
TYPE= | Function | Input | Input example |
---|---|---|---|
INC_SRC | Returns all source code files that are dependent on a given COPY, INCLUDE, or MACRO file. | A list of COBOL copy books, PL/I include files, or assembler macro libraries in two-column format: PDS name and member name. |
|
INC_CPY | Returns all the COPY, INCLUDE, or MACRO files on which a given source code file is dependent. | A list of COBOL, PL/I, or assembler source file names in two-column format: PDS name and member name. |
|
XCALL_SRC | Returns all the source code files that refer to a given externally visible symbol name. | A list of externally visible symbols. |
|
XCALL_SYM | Returns all the external entry points to which a given source code file has references, including the ones it defines. | A list of COBOL, PL/I, or assembler source files in two-column format: PDS name and member name. |
