1.7 Menu Definitions
Menu Definitions define customized menu hierarchies for the
JAMS Submit Menu. These menus are used by JAMS to
present a hierarchy of menus to a user when they want to submit a batch
Job. These menus are available from the Job Submission menu
option within the screen based interface, the MOTIF interface, and the
Windows 9x/NT/2000 interface. You can also access these menus from
within your application via the JAMS callable interface.
Creating menus is optional. JAMS can create a default menu which initially lists all of the available Systems. After the user selects a System, all of the available Jobs and Setup definitions are then displayed.
Menus can be maintained with the screen or Motif based interfaces.
This is a unique identifier for this menu.
A Menu Name must be a valid OpenVMS identifier. This means that it must begin with an alphabetic character and contain only the characters A-Z, 0-9, $ (dollar sign), and _ (underscore). Also the last character may not be an underscore.
The description will be used when a menu is built. The Menu Name and
menu description are displayed as part of the menu.
1.7.1 Menu Detail
The Menu definition form also contains a list of the Menu's detail lines. Each detail line is edited independently.
A single menu definition may have many detail lines. Each detail line specifies selection criteria used to build a new menu when this Menu Name is specified. Each detail line is additive. The Menus, Jobs and/or Setups selected by a detail lines selection criteria are added to the ones selected by previous detail lines to build a complete menu.
If you enter a value for the System I.D., only Jobs or Setups from the indicated System are included in the menu.
Only Jobs, Setups and/or Menus which match this specification are included in the menu. You can use standard OpenVMS wildcards in this specification.
If you specify Y (yes), Jobs which match the selection criteria will be included in the menu. If you specify N (no), Jobs will never be included in the Menu.
If you specify Y (yes), Setups which match the selection criteria will be included in the menu. If you specify N (no), Setups will never be included in the Menu.
If you specify Y (yes), Menus which match the selection criteria will be included in the menu. If you specify N (no), Menus will never be included in the Menu.
