Re: Automatic Variable Insertion

I know I have seen an example somewhere of calling printf() from assembler. Printf() does not really do a WTO, but the form of it named sprint() returns a string that you could WTO. The printf() family is super powerful -- more than you could hope to achieve in a reasonable amount of macro codi

Re: Automatic Variable Insertion

We resolved this by creating using the TEXT= option with a register which allowed us to use a single WTO MF=L and a single WTO MF=E for all WTOs. The messages themselves are generated by a macro which has a LITERAL type (to generate the constants), a DSECT form (to name where the variables are

Re: Automatic Variable Insertion

I'm actually working with LE messages right now. Not CEEMSG specifically, but a combination of: 1) Custom LE conditions and messages 2) CEECMI to add an "insert" to a message represented by a condition token 3) CEEMGET to retrieve the formatted message from a condition token Best place to start

Re: Automatic Variable Insertion

I suggest, by the way, that you use the TEXT keyword of WTO. It can make things much more flexible for you, since the message line is then not part of the WTO expansion, rather just the address of it. Peter Relson z/OS Core Technology Design

Re: Automatic Variable Insertion

Requiring the entire TSO environment to use its message processing subroutine seems like overkill to me if the program that needs the variable message processing is not already using a TSO environment. I wonder if LE's CEEMSG can substitute fields in a message? I haven't investigated that serv

Re: Automatic Variable Insertion

Hey Paul! It may be a bit of a concept change from what you are asking, but have you looked at Gilbert Saint-Flour's "STRING" macro on the CBT? Quite useful for what you are looking at doing. Thanks! Breton Imhauser Senior Solution Delivery Architect | MF Implementations o: 501.585.4066 e: breto
