The PV/Tool is used in OS/COMET® to provide an environment for building and developing syntactically correct OS/COMET® procedures. Components include:
- Main Window
- Editor
- Directive Assistant
- Command Assistant
- Syntax Checker
It provides access to available directives, directive parameters, and parameter properties to aid in procedure development (Directives are OS/COMET® Control Language (CCL) requests issued by an operator or by a Perform File to access services provided by OS/COMET® or an OS/COMET® application). It is an off-line process that may run independent of the OS/COMET® Software Bus.
