HP 64782 User Manual page 430

This parameter is a symbolic reference to an address, address range, file, or
other value.
Note that if no default file was defined by executing the command display
local_symbols_in --SYMB--, or with the cws command, a source file name
(<FILE>) must be specified with each local symbol in a command line.
Symbols may be:
•
Combinations of paths, filenames, and identifiers defining a scope, or
referencing a particular identifier or location (including procedure entry
and exit points).
•
Combinations of paths, filenames, and line numbers referencing a
particular source line.
•
Combinations of paths, filenames, and segment identifiers identifying a
particular PROG, DATA or COMN segment or a user-defined segment.
The Symbolic Retrieval Utilities (SRU) handle symbol scoping and
referencing. These utilities build trees to identify unique symbol scopes.
If you use the SRU utilities to build a symbol database before entering the
emulation environment, the measurements involving a particular symbol
request will occur immediately. If you then change a module and re-enter
the emulation environment without rebuilding the symbol database, the
emulation software rebuilds the changed portions of the database in
increments as necessary.
Further information regarding the SRU and symbol handling is available in
the Symbolic Retrieval Utilities User's Guide. Also refer to that manual for
information on the HP64KSYMBPATH environment variable.
The last symbol specified in a display local_symbols_in --SYMB--
command, or with the cws command, is the default symbol scope. The
default is "none" if no current working symbol was set in the current
emulation session.
You also can specify the current working symbol by typing the cws command
on the command line and following it with a symbol name. The pws
command displays the current working symbol on the status line.
Display memory mnemonic also can modify the current working symbol.
