Description

The CSD STARTBRLIST command starts a browse of all the lists in the CSD.

Rules for concurrent browses

There are four distinct types of browse that can be used on the CSD:
  1. LIST browse of all the lists in the CSD.
  2. ALL GROUPS browse of all the groups in the CSD.
  3. GROUPS IN LIST browse of all the groups in a specified list.
  4. RESOURCE browse of all resources in a specified group.
The rules that govern concurrent browses in the same transaction are as follows:
  • Browses of the same type are not allowed together.
  • The LIST and ALL GROUPS browse are not allowed together.
  • The GROUPS IN LIST and RESOURCE browses are not allowed together.
The ILLOGIC condition is raised if these rules are broken.

For example, it is permitted to browse all groups in the CSD and, as each one is returned, browse all of the resources in that group.
