We have decided to set the property documentDeleteRecords=true in order to handle deletions in our pipeline.
I understand the flow for Cobol, LinkEdit etc since they exist as langPrefix in BuildUtilities.groovy (langPrefix_outputDatasets).
However, I don't understand the flow for 'transfers'.
We have a setup like this, in Transfer.grooovy:
transfer_srcPDS=${hlq}.SOURCE
transfer_clistPDS=${hlq}.CLIST
transfer_xmlPDS=${hlq}.XML
...
...
XML dataset creation options
transfer_XMLsrcOptions=cyl space(1,1) lrecl(160) dsorg(PO) recfm(F,B) dsntype(library)
List of output datasets to document deletions
transfer_outputDatasets=${transfer_srcPDS}
According to the docs , I can't use transfer_outputDatasets, since our stuff is divided into more than one dataset.
Info in README in zAppBuild/build-conf:
transfer_outputDatasets - List of output datasets to document deletions Can be overridden by a file property. If used for multiple, use a file property to set transfer_outputDatasets
How should I define the file.properties needed ?
Should I create a separate file for each of our definitions mentioned above, like SOURCE.properties ?
Naming convention for this file to be able to pick it up ?
Should I put it in the Transfer.properties file ? Name/content of property ?
Hope you understand what I'm trying to say here...
