DSPIGCDCT Command syntax diagram

Purpose

The Display DBCS Conversion Dictionary (DSPIGCDCT) command displays or prints the alphanumeric entries in the specified DBCS conversion dictionary and their related words. The system refers to the DBCS conversion dictionary when doing DBCS conversion.

Note:

Use of the conversion function is not recommended for Chinese and Korean double-byte character sets (DBCS).

Required Parameter

IGCDCT

Specifies the qualified name of the DBCS conversion dictionary to be shown or printed. If you do not specify a library name, the first dictionary found when searching your library list is shown.

The name of the dictionary can be qualified by one of the following library values:

*LIBL: All libraries in the job's library list are searched until the first match is found.

*CURLIB: The current library for the job is searched. If no library is specified as the current library for the job, the QGPL library is used.

library-name: Specify the name of the library to be searched.

dictionary-name: Specify the name of the dictionary that will be shown or printed.

Optional Parameters

ENTRY

Specifies the alphanumeric entries to be shown or printed with their related words.

*ALL: The system displays or prints all of the dictionary entries and their related words.

generic*-string: The system displays or prints all of the dictionary entries that start with the specified string and their related words. The string cannot be longer than 12 characters.

A generic name is a character string of one or more characters followed by an asterisk (*); for example, ABC*. The asterisk substitutes for any valid characters. A generic name specifies all objects with names that begin with the generic prefix for which the user has authority. If an asterisk is not included with the generic (prefix) name, the system assumes it to be the complete object name. For more information on the use of generic names, refer to generic names.

specific-string: Specify an alphanumeric entry (up to 12 characters) and its related words that are shown or printed.

OUTPUT

Specifies whether the output from this command is shown at the requesting work station or printed with the job's spooled output. More information on this parameter is in commonly used parameters.

*: Output requested by an interactive job is shown on the display. Output requested by a batch job is printed with the job's spooled output.

*PRINT: The output is printed with the job's spooled output.
