ODT MCS
MCP-CMS connects via a MCS which is often referred to as the CANDE MCS although it is more general than that being the default ubiquitous DCP/MCP MCS. Upon mcpcms connect, like the lang specific subshells in the next §, an additional command cande can be used which will process the MCP-CMS system commands analogous to those in the MCP 15 document above. The system command processor is also available as a pane in the SPO.
In Burroughs MCP, the CANDE MCS was used ubiquitously. I recall using a full screen editor which i think fed CANDE. The text edit functions are obsolete and not part of the mcpcms cande. CANDE is used in current Unisys MCP but neither it nor the MCS have their former prominence when the OS runs under Windows.mcpcms
A modified zsh for MCP serves as analog of the CMS from VM/CMS. Upon successful connect, the launch link above results in a terminal session with this shell in the browser. Aside from the modification for the MCP machine model, it is otherwise just zsh however the following (mode) commands are available to establish different shell behaviour in support of the KEE:
- shcl (common lisp nature)
- shhs (HsShellScript, haskell nature)
- upsh (prolog nature)
Lisp and prolog implementations are variable, and multiple can be combined but shcl and upsh themselves use sbcl and swipl, respectively. mcpcms can be accessed with ssh using the following script. Using the FQDSAgentName syntax is equivalent to what the launch link does in an AKPERSONs session.
#!/usr/bin/bash # save as <fileName> and invoke with <fileName> <connect-spec> where # # <connect-spec> ::= <mcpCommand> <FQDSAgentName> | <connect-spec> # <connect-spec> ::= <ipV6Address>:<port> | <ipV4Address>:<port> # FQDSAgentName ::= <agentId>@<domain>[:<port>] # # and the values manually supplied from control blocks in the DCMS account profile where connect attempt results will also be available. # The <mcpCommand>. indicates the station where the script runs is trusted and the responsible AKPERSON is the operator. # if [ -z $2 ] then ssh $1 exit fi # # Try a connect based on just the FQDSA assuming an eligible station.

DCP WFL
is eponymous from the MCP WFL with some preserved aesthetics but as a vehicle for DCP and arch for MCP —
- The Job is not the top level construct. The Job or App is the closest construct to heritage WFL in my WFL but with ops on my MCP rather than the Burroughs/Unisys one and expansion beyond batch ops.
- In my WFL, Namespace, Database, and then App/Job is the scope hierarchy. Namespace and Database are elements of a domain space and may span multiple MCP instances but Jobs are limited to a single MCP.
In Burroughs systems, WFL didn have as high a profile as IBM JCL, the main punch of the overall system, in an industry installation, would be its system of transactions and these ran from a database which the Burroughs architecture delivered seamlessly without WFL to terminals as a special db stack. Our WFL is the central driver and basis of our MCP/DCP architecture
- implements the DCP machine model
- which is a prime driver for the development of that model
- with code blocks containing text of other supported langs
DCP WFL is developed in a bottom up manner from this statement of design intent without any spec other than the heritage systems and the DCP/MCP concept. In the early releases there will be no documentation outside of code for some time. In standard Algol convention № 3 above is implemented by these block variants with the same delimitation by BEGIN and END bounded blocks:
MCP Block Types
Block Declarator Language Intrinsic Purpose/Role Enterprise Facing APP¹,DB,NS WFL Yes Job, Database, & Namespace control CL Common Lisp No Lateral R HS Haskell No Applications LP LogTalk No Lateral L PL Prolog No Plain Prolog ST Smalltalk² No SPO Context Machine Facing JOB MINT 3 Yes JCL SUBROUTINE A60 Yes JCL Procedures UNIT A68 Yes MCP Libraries
¹An APP is a JOB with device/station dependencies ²headless squeak
Intrinsic means the lang is native to MCP/WFL and doesn't require COMPILE or BIND to produce a RUN eligible object title. Enterpise facing means oriented to programming users of the system, Machine facing means me, for my motivation, satisfaction and design intent of real machine independence of the core super-OS. Users can create their own semantic spaces by using WFL and the standard modern high level lang blocks while the MINT and Algol elements are my private programming of DCP/MCP not meant for user consuption but visible to satisfy transparency requirements.
Procedural WFL is translated from source text to A60/C, then compiled and linked to the Barton machine, or directly interpreted by genie or MINT. Non-WFL blocks are compiled and bound and used in the concrete context of the DS which they form as extensions of the WFL/B machine.
The JCL is defined by an M-TRAN phrase grammar which can contain pure MINT blocks but general procedures are meant to be in Algol dialects.
A Smalltalk code set is part of the system concept and a "WFL workframe" is intended as an IDE and GUI for DCP/MCP (DGUI/SPO) but it is not required for ops and will not be available until I've worked it on the basis of the experience of the first working clusters.
The namestyles are a homage to MCP and VM/CMS mainframe OSes, both still in use and Unisys WFL (Work Flow Language). MCP as an actually delivered OS is composed of cells (containers) and OS images (nodes) running system Apps and Jobs coded in WFL and the supported langs.
