Chapter 6: Using the Emulator
Using Context Commands
Using Context Commands
The commands in this section display and control the directory and symbol
contexts for the interface.
Directory context. The current directory context is the directory accessed by all
system references for files—primarily load, store, and copy commands—if no
explicit directory is mentioned. Unless you have changed directories since
beginning the emulation session, the current directory context is that of the
directory from which you started the interface.
Symbol context. The emulator/analyzer interface and the Symbol Retrieval
Utilities (SRU) together support a current working symbol context. The current
working symbol represents an enclosing scope for local symbols. If symbols have
not been loaded into the interface, you cannot display or change the symbol context.
