The Get One Dynamic String routine allocates dynamic virtual memory to the string descriptor you specify.
LIB$SGET1_DD_64 quad-integer-length ,descriptor-part
OpenVMS usage: cond_value type: longword (unsigned) access: write only mechanism: by value
quad-integer-length
OpenVMS usage: quadword_unsigned type: quadword (unsigned) access: read only mechanism: by reference
Number of bytes of dynamic virtual memory to be allocated by LIB$SGET1_DD_64. The quad-integer-length argument is the address of an unsigned quadword that contains this number. The amount of storage allocated can be rounded up automatically.descriptor-part
OpenVMS usage: quadword_unsigned type: quadword (unsigned) access: write only mechanism: by reference
Descriptor of the dynamic string to which LIB$SGET1_DD_64 allocates the dynamic virtual memory. The descriptor-part argument contains the address of this descriptor.The descriptor-part argument must contain the address of a dynamic string descriptor; LIB$SGET1_DD_64 returns an unpredictable result if any other type of descriptor is specified by this argument.
The descriptor CLASS field is not checked but is set to dynamic (2). The LENGTH field is set to quad-integer-length, and the POINTER field points to the string area allocated.
LIB$SGET1_DD_64 is similar to LIB$SCOPY_DXDX except that no source string is copied. You can write anything you want in the allocated area.If descriptor-part already has dynamic memory allocated to it, but the amount allocated is less than quad-integer-length, that space is deallocated before LIB$SGET1_DD_64 allocates new space.
SS$_NORMAL Routine successfully completed. LIB$_FATERRLIB Fatal internal error. An internal consistency check has failed. This usually indicates an internal error in the Run-Time Library and should be reported to your HP support representative. LIB$_INSVIRMEM Insufficient virtual memory. Your program has exceeded the image quota for virtual memory.
The Show Accumulated Times and Counts routine returns times and counts accumulated since the last call to LIB$INIT_TIMER and displays them on SYS$OUTPUT. (LIB$INIT_TIMER must be called prior to invoking this routine.) A user-supplied action routine may change this default behavior.
LIB$SHOW_TIMER [handle-address] [,code] [,user-action-procedure] [,user-argument-value]
OpenVMS usage: cond_value type: longword (unsigned) access: write only mechanism: by value
handle-address
OpenVMS usage: address type: longword (unsigned) access: read only mechanism: by reference
Block of storage containing the value returned by a previous call to LIB$INIT_TIMER. The handle-address argument is the address of an unsigned longword integer containing that value.
- If specified, the pointer must be the same value returned by a previous call to LIB$INIT_TIMER.
- If omitted, LIB$SHOW_TIMER will use a block of memory allocated by LIB$INIT_TIMER.
- If handle-address is omitted and LIB$INIT_TIMER has not been called previously, the error LIB$_INVARG is returned. LIB$INIT_TIMER must be called prior to a call to LIB$SHOW_TIMER.
LIB$SHOW_TIMER assumes that LIB$INIT_TIMER has been previously called, and that the results of that call are stored either in a block pointed to by handle-address, or in the memory allocated by LIB$INIT_TIMER.
Note that the handle-address argument is the same as the context argument used in the LIB$INIT_TIMER call.
code
OpenVMS usage: longword_signed type: longword (signed) access: read only mechanism: by reference
Integer specifying the statistic you want; if it is omitted or zero, all five statistics are returned on one line. The code argument is the address of a signed longword integer containing the statistic code.The following values are allowed for the code argument:
Value Description 1 Elapsed time 2 CPU time 3 Buffered I/O 4 Direct I/O 5 Page faults user-action-procedure
OpenVMS usage: procedure type: procedure value access: function call (before return) mechanism: by value
User-supplied action routine called by LIB$SHOW_TIMER. The default action of LIB$SHOW_TIMER is to write the results to SYS$OUTPUT. An action routine is useful if you want to write the results to a file or, in general, anywhere other than SYS$OUTPUT.The action routine returns either a success or failure condition value; this status is returned to the calling program as the value of LIB$SHOW_TIMER.
user-argument-value
OpenVMS usage: user-arg type: longword (unsigned) (on VAX systems)
quadword (unsigned) (on Alpha and I64 systems)access: read only mechanism: by value
A value to be passed to the action routine without interpretation. If omitted, LIB$SHOW_TIMER passes a zero by value to the user routine.
LIB$SHOW_TIMER returns the times and counts accumulated since the last call to LIB$INIT_TIMER. By default, when neither code nor user-action-procedure is specified in the call, LIB$SHOW_TIMER writes to SYS$OUTPUT a line giving the following information:
Shown on Line Description ELAPSED = dddd hh:mm:ss.cc Elapsed real time CPU = hhhh:mm:ss.cc Elapsed CPU time BUFIO = nnnn Count of buffered I/O operations DIRIO = nnnn Count of direct I/O operations PAGEFAULTS = nnnn Count of page faults Any one or all five statistics can be written to SYS$OUTPUT or passed to your user-supplied action routine for other processing.
Call Format for an Action Routine
Action routine is a user-supplied routine called by LIB$SHOW_TIMER. The action routine is used when you want to write results to anywhere other than SYS$OUTPUT. The action routine is called only when you specify the user-action-procedure argument in the call to LIB$SHOW_TIMER.
LIB$SHOW_TIMER calls the action routine using this format:
user-action-procedure out-str [,user-argument-value]
out-str
OpenVMS usage: char_string type: character string access: read only mechanism: by descriptor
Fixed-length string containing the statistics requested. The string is formatted exactly as it would be if written to SYS$OUTPUT. The leading character is blank.user-argument-value
OpenVMS usage: user-arg type: longword (unsigned) (on VAX systems)
quadword (unsigned) (on Alpha and I64 systems)access: read only mechanism: by value
A value passed to LIB$SHOW_TIMER. The user argument is passed without interpretation to the action routine.
SS$_NORMAL Routine successfully completed. LIB$_INVARG Invalid argument. Either code or handle-address was invalid.
Any condition values returned by LIB$PUT_OUTPUT or your action routine.

This Pascal program demonstrates how to call LIB$SHOW_TIMER. The output generated by this Pascal example is as follows:
$ RUN SHOW_TIMER Spend time to acquire elapsed real time and page faults User argument is 5 ELAPSED: 0 00:00:00.44 CPU: 0:00:00.04 BUFIO: 1 DIRIO: 0 FAULTS: 18
The Show Virtual Memory Statistics routine returns the statistics accumulated from calls to LIB$GET_VM/LIB$FREE_VM and LIB$GET_VM_PAGE/LIB$FREE_VM_PAGE.

User-supplied action routine called by LIB$SHOW_VM. By default, LIB$SHOW_VM returns statistics to SYS$OUTPUT. An action routine is useful when you want to return statistics to a file or, in general, to any place other than SYS$OUTPUT. The routine returns either a success or failure condition value, which will be returned as the value of LIB$SHOW_VM.For more information on the action routine, see Call Format for an Action Routine in the Description section.

LIB$SHOW_VM returns the statistics accumulated from calls to LIB$GET_VM/LIB$FREE_VM and LIB$GET_VM_PAGE/LIB$FREE_VM_PAGE. By default, with neither code nor user-action-procedure specified in the call, LIB$SHOW_VM writes a line giving the following information to SYS$OUTPUT:
mmm calls to LIB$GET_VM, nnn calls to LIB$FREE_VM, ppp bytes still allocatedOptionally, any one of six statistics can be output to SYS$OUTPUT and/or the line of information can be passed to a user-specified "action routine" for processing different from the default.

OpenVMS usage: user_arg type: longword (unsigned) access: read only mechanism: by value
The 32-bit value passed to LIB$SHOW_VM is passed to the action routine without interpretation. If the user-specified-argument argument is omitted in the call to LIB$SHOW_VM, a zero is passed by value to the user routine.
