1.CDO> RESERVE FIELD /CLOSURE=TO_TOP FIRST_NAME In this example, the RESERVE command with the /CLOSURE=TO_TOP qualifier reserves the FIRST_NAME field element and all owners to the top collection. 2.CDO> RESERVE FIELD /CLOSURE=TO_TOP /BRANCH=AUDITOR PRODUCT_NUMBER In this example, the RESERVE command with the /CLOSURE=TO_TOP qualifier reserves all elements on the path between the top collection and field PRODUCT_NUMBER; the /BRANCH qualifier creates a branch line AUDITOR descending from PRODUCT_NUMBER. 3.CDO> RESERVE FIELD /CLOSURE=TO_TOP PRODUCT_NUMBER(1:AUDITOR:1) In this example, the RESERVE command reserves the first version in the AUDITOR branch line. 4.SYSTEM collection SOURCE_FILES collection FIRST_FILE.C SECOND_FILE.C INC.H DERIVED_FILES collection FIRST_FILE.OBJ SECOND_FILE.OBJ IMAGE_FILE.EXE In this example, the code shows a collection hierarchy with SYSTEM defined as the top collection. The dependencies in SYSTEM are as follows: o IMAGE_FILE.EXE depends on FIRST_FILE.OBJ and SECOND_ FILE.OBJ. o FIRST_FILE.OBJ depends on FIRST_FILE.C and INC.H. o SECOND_FILE.OBJ depends on SECOND_FILE.C and INC.H. 5.CDO> RESERVE FILE_ELEMENT MCS_BINARY /CLOSURE=TO_CLOSURE INC.H In this example, the RESERVE command reserves the following elements: o Element INC.H o Owners of the element specified, SOURCE_FILES and SYSTEM o Elements that directly or indirectly depend on the element, FIRST_FILE.OBJ, SECOND_FILE.OBJ, IMAGE_FILE.EXE 6.CDO> RESERVE FILE_ELEMENT MCS_BINARY /NOOUTPUT "/ISAM_FILE.DAT" In this example, ISAM_FILE.DAT is reserved using the /NOOUTPUT qualifier, but the file is not copied into the current context directory.
