GLI uses input and output port files with the following declarations.
| Declaration | Input Value | Output Value |
|---|---|---|
| TITLE = | database | database |
| MYNAME = | INPUT | OUTPUT |
| YOURNAME = | INPUT | OUTPUT |
Port files
Port file record size must be the same as the maximum record size defined in the GLI program.
Effect of usercodes
If you use GLI with two or more databases that have the same name under different usercodes, ensure your transactions go to the correct database as follows:
Declare your GLI input and output files as PRIVATE.
Run each GLI under the usercode matching the required database.
