TRGUNLD and TRGLOAD Utilities

The unload and load utilities for the Adabas triggers and stored procedures facility are part of the online Trigger Maintenance facility and are run in a Natural environment:

Utility ... is used to
TRGUNLD unload trigger definitions from the Adabas trigger file and related file-field table entries and write them to a work file.
TRGLOAD load trigger definitions and related file-field tables from the TRGUNLD work file into the trigger file.

The work file for TRGUNLD is a Natural work file (work file 1) that is defined either

The TRGUNLD work file is used as input to the TRGLOAD utility.

A report is prepared at the end of the unload or load summarizing the triggers processed.

Utility Parameters

Wildcard Notation

The following "wildcard" or special character notation can be used in values specified for FILE and FIELD parameters discussed in the following sections for each utility:

Character Example Load triggers with file or field names...
* PERS* that start with "PERS"
> PERS> that have a value greater than "PERS"
< PERS< that have a value less than "PERS"

TRGUNLD Parameters

The following parameters are available to limit the triggers unloaded from the trigger file into the work file during TRGUNLD processing (the default value for each parameter is "*" to include all possibilities):

Parameter Description
FILE
Name of a file found in the trigger definition. Valid values are
a file name ("wildcard" notation allowed)
* all files (the default)
FIELD
Name of a field found in the trigger definition. Valid values are
a field name ("wildcard" notation allowed)
* all fields (the default)
PRE
Specifies pre-trigger or post-trigger. Valid values are
Y pre-trigger
N post-trigger
* both
CMD
Command type that causes trigger to fire. Valid values are
R read
F find
I insert
U update
D delete
* all command types (the default)
ACT
State of the trigger to be processed. Valid values are
A active
D not active (deactivated)
* both
TYPE
Type of participation of trigger in user's ET logic. Valid values are
A asynchronous
N non-participating
P participating
* all participation types

TRGUNLD Parameter Examples

TRGUNLD FILE=EMPLOYEES

Specifying the FILE parameter limits the triggers unloaded to those defined for the specified file, in this case the EMPLOYEES file.

TRGUNLD FILE=VEHICLES,PRE=Y,ACT=A,TYPE=N

Combining parameters further limits the triggers unloaded. In this case, only active, non-participating pre-triggers defined for the VEHICLES file are unloaded. Note that the parameters must be separated by the input delimiter as specified in the ID parameter in the Natural environment.

TRGLOAD Parameters

The following parameters are available to limit the triggers loaded from the TRGUNLD work file to the trigger file during TRGLOAD processing:

Parameter Description
FILE
Name of a file found in the trigger definition. Valid values are
a file name ("wildcard" notation allowed)
* all files (the default)
FIELD
Name of a field found in the trigger definition. Valid values are
a field name ("wildcard" notation allowed)
* all fields (the default)
FFT
Request that the file-field table entry found on the TRGUNLD input data set be loaded with the trigger. Valid values are
Y yes (the default)
N no
REPLACE
Request that a trigger definition being loaded that already exists on the database replace the old one. Valid values are
Y yes: replace the existing definition with the new one
N no (the default): do not replace the existing definition and return an error message

TRGLOAD Parameter Examples

TRGLOAD FILE=EMP*

Load into the trigger file all file-field table entries and triggers found on the TRGUNLD input work file for files starting with "EMP".

TRGLOAD FFT=N,REPLACE=Y

Ignore any file-field table entries read from the work file. If any trigger definition read from the work file has the same specifications as an existing trigger definition, replace the existing definition with the definition from the work file.

End of Processing Reports

Unload Report (TRGUNLD)

A report is written out at the end of the unload process stating the number of trigger definitions and the number of file-field table entries unloaded.

Example

The first page of the report indicates the source file and database for unloading the triggers and summarizes the selection criteria. Following this is a list of each record being unloaded into the work file:

023 Field name not found for this file. The field name specified does not exist in the file-field table for this file. See section File-Field Tables for more information.
025 Invalid command type. See list above for valid values.
027 No field found for this file and command type.
029 No trigger found for this file, command, and field criteria.
039 Natural subprogram name is invalid.
041 Trigger type may be "A", "N", or "P" only.
042 CALLNAT type may be "C", "E", or "N" only.
043 Record buffer usage may be "A", "N", or "U" only.
047 Trigger already exists with this criteria.
103 File name must not be blank.
110 File-field table entry already exists for file.
1xxx Function resulted in an Adabas response code 22 (ADARSP022) where "xxx" represents the subcode.
3xxx Nonzero Adabas response code was returned, where "xxx" is the actual Adabas response code.
