Step 4 Add Framework Components

Step 4. Add Framework Components

In this step you add the components that make up the Framework to the package.

For convenience, you will include Framework components with a name starting with UF_*. However, production Frameworks should never reference UF* or DF* objects which may be overwritten on the next update or reinstall. See Getting ready for deployment in VLF-ONE.

1. Use the CRTSAVF command to create an IBM i save file. Call it B01_VLF.

CRTSAVF B01_VLF

2. Use the SAVOBJ command to add the Framework objects to the save file:

SAVOBJ OBJ(@VF_AC001O @VF_AC023 @VF_SY001A @VF_SY001X @VF_SY001S @VF_SW1* @VFU0012 @VF_SY187O @VF_SY002S @VFUX* @VF_FP501O @VF_AC027O @VF_AC024 @vf_sy178o @uf_o*) LIB(<partitionpgmlib>) DEV(*SAVF) SAVF('<path to save file>')

For example:

3. Verify the objects have been saved.

Next add the server modules you created.

4. Use the CRTSAVF command to create an IBM i save file. Call it B01_VLFO.

5. Use the SAVOBJ command to add the server modules to the save file (note that you use the identifier, not the name):

SAVOBJ OBJ(@smodule1 @smodule2) LIB(<partitionpgmlib>) DEV(*SAVF) SAVF('<path to save file>')

For example:

SAVOBJ OBJ(@smodule1 @smodule2) LIB(VFTEX1PGM) DEV(*SAVF) SAVF(qgpl/B01_VLFO)

6. Verify the objects have been saved.
