Syntax

logdata data_element_name

Description

The logdata command writes the contents of a data element to the open log file.

If a log file is not open, or the named data element does not exist, an error is issued. This is effectively the same as constructing a fordata loop and writing out each line of the data element with the echolog command.

Any variable references appearing in the contents of the data element will follow the same resolution rules as if the operation were performed using the aforementioned fordata / echolog loop.

Parameters

Example

To load some information into a data element, execute:

loaddata mydata=secretcodes.txt

To write that data element to the open log file, execute:

logdata mydata
