You can find detailed
information about how to use the DSGI functions and routines in the
DSGI function and routine dictionaries. The following table lists
the dictionaries that are available.
DSGI Function and Routine Dictionaries
In these dictionaries,
each function or routine is followed by an alphabetical listing of
the operators that are used with it. For each operator, the statement
syntax, other argument definitions, and notes about using the function
or routine, operating states, and return codes are provided. Operating
states are summarized in
Operating States.
The syntax for all of
the functions and routines contains the argument
return-code-variable. This argument must be a
numeric variable name and can be a different variable name for each
function or routine.
The
return-code-variable argument is used to debug
DSGI programs. It contains the return code of the function or routine
call. If the return code is any value other than 0, the function
or routine did not execute properly.
Each function or routine
has a different set of possible return codes. The return codes are
listed in the heading for the routine. Refer to
Return Codes for DSGI Routines and Functions for an explanation of the return codes.
