Testing in temporary guided dialog

In temporary guided dialog application domains and command/statement structures (operands and default values) can be tested.

The following example shows the test of the COPY-FILE command contained in the system syntax file $TSOS.SYS.SDF.SYSTEM.SYNTAX.

/start-sdf-sim

%  SDS0002 SDF-SIM TERMINATED NORMALLY

1. Testing is not possible in temporary guided dialog unless the question mark (?) required for normal operation with SDF is entered here too.

2. When displayed on the screen, the command or statement operands have their preset values. The values that are to be checked (in this case a and b) are entered.

In order to test with permanent guided dialog or with an error dialog, MODIFY-SDF-

OPTIONS must be used in the simulation (GUIDANCE=*MINIMUM/*MEDIUM/*MAXIMUM/*NO).
