Issue/Introduction

How to distinguish which IDMS maps are pageable in IDD or with OLQ reading the dictionary records.

Environment

Release 19.0

Resolution

There is no way to tell in IDD if a map is pageable.

In the MAP-098 dictionary record, the field MAP-FLAG2-098 will have the x'08' flag turned on for pageable maps.
There's no way to test binary bits in OLQ and multiple flag bits could be on in the same field.

Use the query below in OLQ to display all pageable maps in the dictionary. This will test all possible valid values where the x'80' flag is turned on.

SIGNON SS=IDMSNWKA DICTNAME=SYSDIRL DBNAME=dictname; 
SELECT MAP-NAME-098  FROM MAP-098 WHERE MAP-FLAG2-098 
IN (B'00001000', B'00001010', B'10001000', B'10001010', B'11001000', B'11001010', B'11101000', B'11101010' )   

Additional Information

See documentation section MAP-098.
