I make one simple exit point in SYSPROF that has satsified everything I'v e ever needed to do. Maintaining it across release boundaries is trivial. Just before calling the users PROFILE EXEC I call my SYSEXIT EXEC. The
sole job of SYSEXIT is to link and access a local programs disk (perhaps MAINT 31A) and invoke the ALLUSERS EXEC on that local programs disk. Wit h this strategy I can update the ALLUSERS EXEC anytime I want without needing to update the 190 disk.
