Accessin system symbolics from assembler
We have defined some system symbolics that I'd like to be able to test from an assembler program. I haven't found a macro to give me the info but I have found ECVTSYMT which is a pointer to the table. I took a dump to look at the format of the table and it is a mystery to me. Anybody know how to format this table.

Re: Accessin system symbolics from assembler
Do a search in SAMPLIB for ASASYMBM. You should see a sample of how to gain access to the symbols in the system. If need be, I think I have a block of code to parse the in-core (how long has it been since anyone used that term -core-) table. -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bauer, Bobby (NIH/CIT) Sent: Thursday, July 21, 2005 8:48 AM To: IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU Subject: Accessin system symbolics from assembler We have defined some system symbolics that I'd like to be able to test from an assembler program.

Re: Accessin system symbolics from assembler
Thanks Gary. The ASASYMBM routine looks to be just what I need.

Re: Accessin system symbolics from assembler
If you know the name of the symbol and just want to replace it - use ASASYMBM - documented in Assembler Services Ref. If you want an example of processing the ECVTSYMT - see the LISTSYM program on my personal website (www.mximvs.com) - it is in the REXX Functions Download section. -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bauer, Bobby (NIH/CIT) Sent: 21 July 2005 08:48 To: IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU Subject: Accessin system symbolics from assembler We have defined some system symbolics that I'd like to be able to test from an assembler program.
