Is there an 8.40.G equivalent to PHTEMPKEEP?

[Richard Witkopp]

Our sys admin here has a command procedure that finds the .sfd and copies it to a specific location. It is invoked in quiz/qtp after the build but before exiting, using the $@location:magic.com construct. I can't show the code because of copyright/ownership blah, blah. But it's not rocket science, and a reasonably competent DCL coder should be able to whip something similar up.

PHTEMP and PHTEMPKEEP are not available on OpenVMS. Way back during the 
original port project, it was decided to stick with the fact that OpenVMS 
does not have a temporary file domain like MPE. Therefore interim and 
temporary subfiles are in SYS$SCRATCH, but they are normally deleted when 
the QUIZ or QTP session ends. I don't know if it says this anywhere in the 
current reference, but in the original docs, it says that if you need a 
subfile between QUIZ and QTP sessions, you have to specify KEEP.

Hi all:

   I would like keep the subfiles that I create while compiling QTP and 
QUIZ.
   My understanding is if I set PHTEMPKEEP my subfiles should be saved in 
the directory pointed to by
   PHTEMP.

   Define/job PHTEMP  <temp location>
   PHTEMPKEEP == 1
   QTP
   > .
   > Subfile ...
   >Build
   >Exit
 
   Dir PHTEMP:
 
   No files
