CCIFRES Output File

The CCIFRES output file can contain any valid resources. If some input resources are already located in the Resource file, the new resources replace the ones currently in the Resource file.

Resources can be added to the Resource file using the CCF Manager. Note that any resources added by this method are also deleted if this utility is run afterwards using the NEW parameter. For information, see CTDCCFRS Parameters.

The resource FONTS.TXT must be added to the Resource file by one of the following methods:

FONTS MAPPING must be defined in the FONTS DD statement

If the utility is run in New mode, or in Update mode while adding or replacing FONTS.TXT, *.JSL or *.JSI members, the Resource file must be transferred to the PC without translation and without CRLF.

Member FONTS.TXT must be defined according to the DVS ruler. If there is no input DD statement under the FONTS DD statement, no changes are made in the existing FONTS.TXT member. This DD statement is optional.

In the PC, the CCF Resource file must be processed by the CCF Manager to add required resources and to be recompiled (PDL, PDI and PDF compiler). Once this has been done, it must be returned to the mainframe where it is ready for use.

If the Resource file was processed in update mode and no FONTS.TXT, *.JSL or *.JSI members were added or replaced, the Resource file is ready to be used as is, without processing by the CCF Manager.
