Members

A member is a logically coherent data set such as a file, a procedure, an object module or a source program. Each member can be individually addressed within the library by way of its member designation. In the context of LMS the terms “member” and “element” are used synonymously.

The member designation identifies a member and consists of three parts: name, version and type.

Name:	The name component describes the logical contents of the member.
Version:	The version component describes the current development state of the member.
Type:	The type component serves to classify the members.

For a description of the member types, see "Member type definition"ff.
