Input event log

The input event log is a chronological log of the events that took place during the input phase of binder operation. Its presence is controlled by the LIST option. If LIST(OFF) or NOLIST is specified, no input event log is generated. If LIST(STMT), LIST, or LIST(SUMMARY) is specified, only input events pertaining to control statements are logged. If LIST(NOIMP) is specified, messages pertaining to the import control statement are suppressed, while those generated by other control statements and binder calls continue to be logged. When processing DLLs that contain a large number of IMPORT control statements in their side files, this option helps to reduce the number of messages logged while still providing information about other binder processing. If LIST(ALL) is specified, all input events are logged (such as those initiated by binder function calls as well as those initiated by control statements).

Figure 1 contains a sample input event log. The log can include:

The list of processing options used in the binder invocation.
Errors with the invocation parameter (binder or batch loader options)
Line by line summary of functions performed during the input phase. Each bind operation is treated separately: a control statement is printed, followed by a summary of the function performed and the complete names of the objects operated upon.
Errors encountered during the input phase.
