This is my idea, for whatever it may be worth. I would create a proc with something like:
//SYSLIB DD DISP=SHR,DSN=some.empty.pds // INCLUDE MEMBER=prelibs // DD DISP=SHR,DSN=first.standard.library // DD DISP=SHR,DSN=second.standard.library //* OTHER STANDARD LIBRARIES, IN ORDER // INCLUDE MEMBER=postlibs //* END OF SYSLIB CONCATENATION. In the standard PROCLIB, have a member called "prelibs" (replace with something specific) which again allocates "some.empty.pds". Also, have a member called "postlibs" (again, rename as desired) which also has just "some.empty.pds" allocated. Now, if somebody wants to replace "prelibs" or "postlibs", they simply have either or both of those members in their own PROCLIB. They then tell JES to use their proclib by putting it first in the ORDER=(...) concatenation of the JCLLIB statement. Another possibility is an extention of that. Instead of "hardcoding" the name "prelibs" or "postlibs", use SET variables to specify the name of the member to be INCLUDE'd. Like: //PROCLIB JCLLIB ORDER=(...) // SET PRELIBS=member1 // SET POSTLIBS=member2 //STEP1 EXEC PROC=proc //* OTHER JCL. The "proc" would be similar to the above, but slightly altered: //SYSLIB DD DISP=SHR,DSN=some.empty.pds // INCLUDE MEMBER=&PRELIBS // DD DISP=SHR,DSN=first.standard.library // DD DISP=SHR,DSN=second.standard.library //* OTHER STANDARD LIBRARIES, IN ORDER // INCLUDE MEMBER=&POSTLIBS //* END OF SYSLIB CONCATENATION. Hope this makes sense. -- John ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
