Using LCDS Print Description Language

Files that are transferred with a D (delete) option are deleted as
soon as the report is processed, and therefore must not be
referenced in a subsequent report.
NOTE: The FILE DJDE does not allow a file to be replaced if the
file is a system permanent file. System permanent files have a $
in their names.

Card image file

processing

When card image files are transferred, the following occurs:

1. The system checks the FILE DJDE for valid parameters, and

responds to errors as follows:

If the destination filetype is not acceptable for a card
image file, the preceding DJDE packet is printed on an
OPRINFO page with an error message that indicates the
file type is wrong. The system then proceeds to read and
discard the extent of the file.

If the file name is improperly specified, the preceding
DJDE packet is printed on an OPRINFO page with an
error message that indicates that the file name is wrong.
The system then proceeds to process the data as variable
text data.

If the system reads more card image records than the
maximum number of card images specified by the DJDE,
it discards the extra records. The preceding DJDE
packet is printed on an OPRINFO page with an error
message indicating that the excess card file images were
lost.

If the file cannot be created due to insufficient space on
the disk, the preceding DJDE packet is printed on an
OPRINFO page with an error message indicating there is
not enough space on the disk for the file being
downloaded. The system then proceeds to read and
discard the file.

2. The system makes an appropriate amount of disk space

available for the file. If the file contains errors that preclude
printing or storage, the system discards the file.

3. The system reads the card image file records. When the

system reads a card image file record, it uses record
delimiters (if any) to determine record length. Only the data
portion of a record is used for file processing.
