Call invocation of the SCLM services

Programs can use the FLMLNK subroutine interface to call the SCLM services. The examples in SCLM services show call statements in Pascal syntax and service names and keywords as literals enclosed in single quotes (' ').

Note: None of the languages require you to use literals. You can specify parameters as variables, as in the examples on the following pages.

You cannot call the following services using the FLMLNK subroutine interface:

DBUTIL
RPTARCH

Note: SCLM services can be issued from function modules that reside either below or above the 16-megabyte line. The interface module FLM$LNK, alias FLMLNK has the attributes RMODE(24) and AMODE(ANY). These attributes allow both 24-bit and 31-bit addressing mode callers. Modules that reside above the 16-megabyte line (RMODE(ANY)) and include FLM$LNK in their load module can override the RMODE(24) attribute during link-edit. Data areas above the 16-megabyte line are also supported.

Standard register conventions are used. Registers 2-14 are preserved across the call.
