@VERIFY<br />
(progcmt)<br />
appends a comment for the program specified by progname that is displayed in<br />
the output report, where progcmt is the text that is appended.<br />
@@progname<br />
specifies a program to patch or to move, where progname is the 4-character<br />
name of the program that you want to patch or move. <strong>Program</strong> names must<br />
begin with a letter (A–Z).<br />
Note: If you want to patch a program, you must load the program in the current<br />
@LOADSET control statement section before you can patch it. If you are<br />
moving an entry point, you must ensure that it is being loaded in the<br />
current @LOADSET control statement section.<br />
.objfile<br />
specifies the object file name, where objfile is the 4-character alphanumeric<br />
name of the object file (within the program) that you want to patch on the z/<strong>TPF</strong><br />
system. Object file names must begin with a letter (A–Z).<br />
rsa<br />
is the 1- to 6-digit hexadecimal relative starting address in the program or object<br />
file. The relative starting address specifies the offset into the program or object<br />
file where the patch will be applied.<br />
newdata<br />
is the new data (or patch) that will replace the old data in the program or object<br />
file, beginning at the relative starting address. The new data must be an even<br />
number of hexadecimal digits and cannot exceed 32 digits (16 bytes).<br />
valdata-olddata<br />
validates the data that is replaced by newdata, where olddata is an even<br />
number in hexadecimal format that does not exceed 32 digits (16 bytes). The<br />
data specified for olddata must match what is currently in the program. If it does<br />
not, the data in the program is not changed and an error occurs. If it does, the<br />
data in the program is replaced by newdata. For example, this parameter can<br />
help to verify that your patch is starting at the correct relative starting address.<br />
Note: The length of the data that you are validating can have fewer bytes or<br />
more bytes than the new data. If the validation is completed successfully,<br />
only the number of bytes in your new data will be replaced.<br />
MOVe<br />
indicates that the single entry BSO specified by @@progname has been moved<br />
into another BSO. The BSO that @@progname has been moved to must be<br />
included in the same loadset.<br />
Note: If the E-type loader is used to move an entry point, you cannot activate<br />
another loadset that moves the entry point again. The loadset that<br />
moved the entry point first must be deactivated or accepted before the<br />
entry point can be moved again.<br />
Use the @VERIFY control statement to specify a program attribute table (PAT) that<br />
includes all of the programs being loaded. The loader determines if each program<br />
being loaded exists in the specified PAT.<br />
The following figure shows the syntax for the @VERIFY control statement section of<br />
the loader input file. In this figure, the double arrowhead (►►) indicates that the<br />
