Hello All, I have been under the impression for decades that SYNAD exits are called in 24-bit mode.
Recently I have been having problems in one of my programs. The problem goes as follows: I am reading an input file that is defined as: //INPUT DD *,SYMBOLS=JCLONLY OUTPUT DATASET &OUTDSN *other parameters* /* When the value of OUTDSN is long enough that the OUTPUT input statement is greater than 80 characters, my SYNAD exit is called, but in 31-bit mode. R1 is passed to the SYNAD exit but has flag settings in the upper byte followed by the 3-byte address of my DCB. Since I am now in 31-bit mode, the flag bits cause the DCB address to be unavailable and I get a S0C4 when trying to access the DCB. If I insert a "NILH R1,X'00FF'" as the first instruction of my SYNAD code, all works as before and I get a wrong length record error, rightfully so, since the input record passed by the OS is greater than 80 characters. So, after my long winded explanation, my question is, when did the calling of SYNAD exits change to 31-bit? Or am I just still living in the dark ages?
