ADDDATATYPES


Format:
ADDDATATYPES {FILES} [QUIET] [REFRESH]

Template:
FILES/M, QUIET/S, REFRESH/S

Purpose:
To build a list of data types that datatypes.library
can understand.

Path:
C:ADDDATATYPES

Specification:


ADDDATATYPES is used by datatypes.library to build a list of data types that
it can understand. DataType descriptors are stored in DEVS:DataTypes.

ADDDATATYPES can also be called by application installation scripts to add
their own data types to the list. Basically, ADDDATATYPES is not a user
program.

The FILES option specifies the name(s) of the DataType descriptors to add to
the list of DataType descriptors.

The QUIET option, if specified, will suppress error and output messages.

The REFRESH option, if specified, will scan the DEVS:DataTypes directory for
new or changed DataType descriptors.

ADDDATATYPES is valid on Workbench 3.0 level software.
