The “repeat loop” feature of VCOP allows the programmer to wrap an outer loop around the loop nest of a vloops command. Each iteration of the outer loop executes with a new set of parameters from the pblock. A repeat loop is specified with the foreach construct in Kernel-C.

The translation of repeat loops uses a straightforward for loop. The tvals structure corresponding to the parameter block for a loop that uses the repeat feature is declared as an array, which is indexed by the repeat loop LCV to access parameter values.
