Valid on Alpha and Integrity server systems only.
Displays information about the specified Integrity servers image
file.
NOTE
This command can be executed on an Alpha or Integrity server
system, but it is designed only to display attributes of
Integrity images. These attributes can be modified using the
SET IMAGE command.
Format
SHOW IMAGE image-filespec
1 – Parameter
image-filespec
Specifies the name of an OpenVMS Integrity servers image file
whose attributes you want to display. The asterisk (*) and
percent sign (%) wildcard characters are allowed in the file
specification. If you omit the file type extension, the default
file type .EXE is applied.
2 – Description
Displays information about an Integrity servers image file. The
information displayed includes the image identification, the
linker identification, and information indicating whether the
image has been modified since the original link.
3 – Qualifier
3.1 /OUTPUT
/OUTPUT[=file-spec]
Writes the SHOW IMAGE output to a specified file rather than
to the current SYS$OUTPUT device. If you specify the /OUTPUT
qualifier without a file specification, the output is directed to
SYS$OUTPUT. If you omit the file type in the file specification,
the default file type is .LIS. If you specify a file type and
omit the file name, the default file name is SHOW. No wildcard
characters are allowed in the file specification.
3.2 /PAGE
/PAGE[=keyword]
/NOPAGE (default)
Controls the display of SHOW IMAGE information on the screen.
You can use the following keywords with the /PAGE qualifier:
Keyword Description
CLEAR_SCREEN Clears the screen before each page is displayed.
SCROLL Displays information one line at a time.
SAVE[=n] Enables screen navigation of information, where n
is the number of pages to store.
The /PAGE qualifier is not compatible with the /OUTPUT qualifier.
The /PAGE=SAVE qualifier allows you to navigate through screens
of information. The /PAGE=SAVE qualifier can store up to 5
screens of up to 255 columns of information. When you use the
/PAGE=SAVE qualifier, you can use the following keys to navigate
through the output:
Key Sequence Description
Up arrow key, Scroll up one line.
Ctrl/B
Down arrow key Scroll down one line.
Left arrow key Scroll left one column.
Right arrow key Scroll right one column.
Find (E1) Specify a string to find when the
information is displayed.
Insert Here (E2) Scroll right one half screen.
Remove (E3) Scroll left one half screen.
Select (E4) Toggle 80/132 column mode.
Prev Screen (E5) Get the previous page of information.
Next Screen (E6), Get the next page of information.
Return, Enter, Exit. (Some utilities define these
Space, F10, and differently.)
Ctrl/Z
Help (F15) Display utility help text.
Do (F16) Toggle the display to oldest/newest page.
Ctrl/W Refresh the display.
4 – Examples
1.$ SHOW IMAGE PATCH
Show Image Version 1.2 29-SEP-2004 07:52:08.41
WORK1:[SWEENEY.CLIUTL]PATCH.EXE;65
This is an OpenVMS IA64 (Elf format) executable image file
Image Identification Information
Image name: PATCH
Global Symbol Table name: PATCH
Image file identification: X-6
Image build identification: <unavailable>
Link identification: Linker T02-14
Link Date/Time: 28-SEP-2004 07:49:17.57
Patch Date/Time: Never
Manipulation Date/Time: 29-SEP-2004 07:51:58.73
Image Dynamic Data Version: 1.1
Image Completion Code Value: SUCCESS State: Original
Image Link Flags state: Manipulated
Current Image Flags Original Link Flags
------------------- -------------------
IMGSTA CALL_DEBUG
MAIN IMGSTA
TBK_IN_IMG MAIN
DBG_IN_IMG TBK_IN_IMG
DBG_IN_IMG
Image Link Flag Description
--------------- -------------------------------------
CALL_DEBUG : Call debugger
IMGSTA : Call SYS$IMGSTA
MAIN : Image has main transfer
TBK_IN_IMG : Traceback records in image file
DBG_IN_IMG : Debug records in image file
In this example, the SHOW IMAGE command displays the attributes
of the file PATCH.EXE located in the current working directory.
The image was modified from the original attributes on 29-SEP-
2004.
The image link flags output indicates the image was changed to
not call the debugger at image startup. The output also shows
that the traceback symbols and the debugger symbols are present
in the image file.
The first line of output displays the version of SHOW IMAGE
installed on the system. The line titled "Image Dynamic Data
Version" shows the version of SHOW IMAGE that was available
when the image was linked. Future updates to the Integrity
servers ELF image format might cause the image dynamic data
version to increase. When the image version does not match
the SHOW IMAGE version, a new version of SHOW IMAGE might be
required to display the new ELF format data.
2.$ SHOW IMAGE SYS$LIBRARY:DCLTABLES
Show Image Version 1.2 29-SEP-2004 07:59:48.07
SYS$COMMON:[SYSLIB]DCLTABLES.EXE;928
This is an OpenVMS IA64 (Elf format) executable image file
Image Identification Information
Image name: DCLTABLES
Global Symbol Table name: DCLTABLES
Image file identification: 0-0
Image build identification: XAAU-BL1-0000
Link identification: Linker T02-02
Link Date/Time: 12-MAY-2004 14:39:38.30
Patch Date/Time: Never
Manipulation Date/Time: Never
Image Dynamic Data Version: <unavailable>
Image Completion Code Value: SUCCESS State: Original
Image Link Flags state: <unavailable>
This example lists the image information for the DCLTABLES.EXE
file in SYS$LIBRARY. The <unavailable> string in the image
dynamic data version line indicates that this image cannot be
manipulated with the SET IMAGE command.
