Use the FDTPRINT function to print and dump the field definition table (FDT) of a file.
Note:
Report output produced by the ADAICK FDTPRINT utility function lists
logically deleted fields as asterisks (**).
Note:
The NOOPEN parameter can be specified for this function, but is
ignored by Adabas.
This document covers the following topics:
The number of the file for which the FDT is to be printed/dumped. A file number is required the first time you execute ADAICK.
If FILE is omitted on subsequent executions, the last file accessed by ADAICK is used.
When a parameter error or a functional error occurs while this utility function is running, the utility ordinarily prints an error message and terminates with user abend 34 (with a dump) or user abend 35 (without a dump). If NOUSERABEND is specified, the utility will not abend after printing the error message. Instead, the message "utility TERMINATED DUE TO ERROR CONDITION" is displayed and the utility terminates with condition code 20.
Note:
When NOUSERABEND is specified, we recommend that it be specified
as the first parameter of the utility function (before all other parameters).
This is necessary to ensure that its parameter error processing occurs
properly.
