845.0. "subtle change in /BATCH=(NAME=?)" by CRAYON::GENT (Party gone out of bounds -- B52's) Mon Aug 24 1987 12:40
There is a subtle change in the way the /BATCH qualifier and the NAME
attribute work in VAX DOCUMENT V1.0 (BL9). This is not a problem, but
one of our writers was confused by it so I thought I'd mention it for others.
Previously, you could use the NAME attribute to specify the name of the
job and the log file. With V1.0, NAME only changes the job name,
it does NOT alter the log file name or location.
For example, some writers defined a symbol such as DOCBATCH for batch
processing:
$ DOCBATCH :== DOCUMENT/BATCH=(NOPRINT,NAME=SYS$LOGIN:BOOKBUILD.LOG)
In previous baselevels of DOCUMENT, the log file would have been
SYS$LOGIN:BOOKBUILD.LOG.
With VAX DOCUMENT V1.0, the log file will have the name of the SDML
source file and will be placed in the current default directory.
To make DOCBATCH continue to work as expected, you need to change the
NAME attribute to LOG:
$ DOCBATCH :== DOCUMENT/BATCH=(NOPRINT,LOG=SYS$LOGIN:BOOKBUILD.LOG)
