PROLIB command examples

This section provides several PROLIB command examples.

The following example creates a standard library called app.pl in your current directory:

prolib app.pl -create

The following example adds all the r-code files in the current directory that begin with the letters sys to the standard library app.pl. In this example, the r-code files are in a directory, so the operating system processes the wild card argument:

prolib app.pl -add sys*.r

The following example deletes all r-code files ending with the letters dev from the standard library app.pl and lists all of the files in the library. In this example, the r-code files are in the app.pl library, so PROLIB processes the wild card argument. This requires escaping the *dev.r argument. On UNIX, this means placing quotes around it. Your operating system might use different techniques to escape wild cards:

prolib app.pl -delete "*dev.r" -list

The following example replaces the files appmenu.r and apprept.r in the standard library app.pl, then compresses the library to free up unused disk space:

prolib app.pl -replace appmenu.r apprept.r -compress

The following example creates a standard library called app.pl in your current directory, adds all the r-code files in the current directory that begin with the letters sys to the library app.pl, and generates a memory-mapped library called app_map.pl:

prolib app.pl -create -add sys*.r -makeshared app_map.pl
