System Dump Analyzer DEFINE — MicroVMS 4.4
DEFINE symbol [=] expression [/qualifier...]
Assigns a value of an expression to a symbol. The symbol can be used
in expressions. Each subsequent definition of the same symbol overrides
any previous definitions. The symbol remains defined until you exit
from SDA.
Additional information available:
/KEY
Causes a key, rather than a symbol, to be defined. If you use this
qualifier, the symbol parameter must be the name of a key on your
terminal keyboard, and the expression parameter must be the SDA
command that is to be executed when the key, followed by a carriage
return, is pressed.
For example, use the command below to define the key, pf1, to
execute the SHOW STACK command.
SDA> DEFINE/KEY PF1 "SHOW STACK"
/SET_STATE
Causes the key being defined to change a command state rather than
to execute an SDA command. The expression parameter must be the
name of a state instead of the name of a terminal key.
/[NO]TERMINATE
Causes the key definition to include termination of the command,
which causes SDA to execute the command when the key is pressed.
No carriage return is required.
