/RECOMPILE

       Syntax:

         CDDL/RECOMPILE [qualifiers] path-name [, path-name]...

  The CDDL/RECOMPILE command enables you to recompile DMU record
  definitions from the source text stored in the dictionary.  This
  command is useful if you have modified a DMU record definition that is
  the template record for COPY field descriptions.  You can use
  CDDL/RECOMPILE to recompile those record definitions that copy the
  modified template record.

1    /ACL

       Syntax:

           /[NO]ACL

  Use /ACL to create the default access control list for each record
  definition in the source file.  Use /NOACL to prevent creation of any
  access control lists.  /ACL is the default.

  If you use /VERSION, /ACL propagates the access control list from the
  previous highest version of the dictionary object to the new version.
  /NOACL with /VERSION prevents this propagation.  You cannot use
  /[NO]ACL with /REPLACE.

2    /AUDIT

       Syntax:

           /AUDIT [= (quoted-string [, quoted-string]...)]
           /AUDIT=file-specification
           /NOAUDIT

  Use /AUDIT to create a history list entry auditing the creation of each
  record definition.  /NOAUDIT is the default.

  You can include explanatory text in the history list entries in either
  of two ways.  Either enclose a series of strings in double quotation
  marks, or specify a file whose contents are to be included in the
  history list entry.

  With /NOAUDIT, no new history list entries are created.

3    /COPY_LIST

       Syntax:

           /[NO]COPY_LIST

  Use /COPY_LIST with /LISTING to expand in the listing file all template
  records included in a record description.  CDDL extracts all template
  records and inserts the corresponding CDDL source in the output listing
  file.  In the listing, CDDL inserts a "T" in the first character of
  each line that is part of an expanded template record.  You cannot
  specify /NOLISTING and /COPY_LIST.

  /NOCOPY_LIST is the default.

4    /LISTING

       Syntax:

           /LISTING [=file-specification]
           /NOLISTING

  Use /LISTING to write an output file containing the source definition
  and CDDL messages.  The file specification is a standard OpenVMS file
  specification, and the default file type is .LIS.  /NOLISTING prevents
  creation of the listing file.

  /LISTING is the default.

5    /PATH

       Syntax:

           /PATH = path-name

  Use /PATH to name a default directory from which to trace the path
  names in the CDDL source files.  The CDDL uses your normal CDD$DEFAULT
  directory if you do not specify /PATH.

6    /REPLACE

       Syntax:

           /[NO]REPLACE

  Use /REPLACE to delete an existing DMU record definition and insert a
  new definition in its place.  Access control lists remain unchanged, as
  do history lists, unless you specify /AUDIT to create entries recording
  the replacement.

  /NOREPLACE is the default.  If you try to compile a source file for an
  existing DMU record definition without specifying /REPLACE or /VERSION,
  the CDDL aborts the compilation and issues an error message.

  You cannot specify /VERSION or /[NO]ACL with /REPLACE.

7    /VERSION

       Syntax:
           /[NO]VERSION

  Use /VERSION to create an additional version of an existing DMU record.
  If the path name in the CDDL source file specifies an absolute version
  number, the new version has that version number.  Otherwise the newly
  created record has a new version number one higher than the previous
  highest.

  /NOVERSION is the default.  Use /NOVERSION to prevent creation of an
  additional version of a record that already exists.

  If you specify /NOACL, the newly created record does not have an access
  control list.  If you do not specify /NOACL, the new record has the
  same access control list as the previous highest version.  If there is
  no previous version and you use /ACL, the new version has the default
  ACL for dictionary objects.

  The newly created record has the same history list as the previous
  highest version.  Use /AUDIT to add an entry to this history list
  describing the creation of the new version.  Use /NOAUDIT to leave the
  history list unchanged.

8    /V2

       Syntax:

           /V2

  The /V2 qualifier causes the compiler to use the CDD V2.0 defaults for
  the signs of the fixed point numbers.  With this qualifier, BYTE, WORD,
  and LONGWORD datatypes are unsigned by default, but QUADWORD and
  OCTAWORD datatypes are signed.

  If you do not specify the /V2 qualifier, all the fixed point datatypes
  are unsigned by default.
