z/TPF offline loader input file control statements

The z/TPF offline loader can be run on z/OS® (using the TPFLDR program) or Linux® (using the OFFLDR program). The offline load is directed by a loader input file, which consists of a series of control statements. The offline loader supports three types of offline loads. For more information about each type of load, including a summary of which control statements apply to which load, see the following:

General file loader
Image loader
E-type loader.

Use a combination of the following control statements to create your loader input file:

@APPLICATION
@CIMR
@CTKX
@DEFINE
@FILE
@GFKEYPOINT
@INCLUDE
@IPL
@KEYPOINT
@LOADSET
@VERIFY.

You can use control statements more than once in a loader input file.

Note: When loading a program, the specified file and path names in the loader input file are case-sensitive. When patching a program, however, the case is ignored.

You can include comments in your loader input file. For more information, see Comment conventions.
