Creating a Tagging Library

The tagging facilities used in ADP are based on the standard Draft automatic tagging functionality. You need to be familiar with this before reading any further.
The ADP PGA defaults file contains an entry to allow the administrator to define what tag rule set element will be available to the user during use of the ADP system. The supplied system refers to a TRLB called
DRA/PRJ/ADP/TAGGS/PGA
that contains the TRST’s that the user accesses on the tagging creation form. Each TRST is represented by toggle gadgets on the user’s form.
In order to create your own TRLB for tagging you simply create the TRSTs and their TAGR elements with tag rules and tagging templates as required. The only important consideration for the ADP system is that the last part of the TRSTs name is used on the user’s form, and so this should describes the tagging available to the user.
For example, if the TRST is named /MYTAG/Instruments, then Instruments will appear on the user’s tagging creation form.
Some example tagging templates are provided in the label libraries
DRA/PRJ/ADP/TAGGS/PGA/TXTM
and
DRA/PRJ/ADP/TAGGS/PGA/SYTM
but you are free to define or use any symbol or text template as required.
