Agreed on all points:
Errors: disp5ay --> display and repeated "If RC Not = 0 Then" near the end of
the program code. I'll send an RCF on that one.
I added a pseudo-random initialization of the zinput area based on the RANDOM
function with a seed of the current CCYYMMDD date and it does work
The example has two bugs in it (a typo and a repeated line), but fixing those
it does appear to work. A better test would have been to compress something
other than just binary zeroes, and also to re-init the "input" (now output)
area so you can actually "see" it work (in the debugger).
A DASD record is a physical block. Contents of the block depend on
the RECFM=, i.e. U for load modules, VB for variable blocked, FB for
Fixed Blocked.

There is a BUFL parameter, but it's not needed in this case; LRECL=max,
BLKSIZE=max will do the job.

Storage is a lot cheaper than programmer time writing exits and bit-twiddling
DCBs.
Isn't there a BUFL parameter that accomplishes the same thing and can be used
without regard to actual BLKSIZE (in the case of RECFM=FB)?

Ray and David have half of the answer. Specifically, you put it in a
constructor for a static class instance. The first "user code" that C++ runs --
before int main() -- is static class constructors.
What else do you do?

I've done it (called the Binder Fast Data API from COBOL). My program returns
interesting data about PDSE program object modules, such as the sections,
compiler versions and compile dates, binder information, user data IDRs, and so
on.
The hardest part was dealing with modules with enormously
Since this is C++, I'd stick it in a constructor for main, or (less
desirable) main::init(). No LE games needed.

That seems like an odd place to put it. What's next, a chapter on how to call

Wasting more time searching the internet about zEDC I came across several

almost like you did not need the zEDC Express software feature. So, I coded

I'm pretty sure that there won't be any progress without the contents of the
DCB at the time of failure; the current IOB might help. And if there is a
SYNADAF, its output would also help.

If so, the first thing you enter on the line is treated
as the name of a command, not an operand, and
the operands begin with the second thing on the line.

Can you get this to work if you enter it as a quoted string?

IKJIDENT should accept quoted strings according to the doc.
Do I assume your comments on using the ADDRESS keyword are for IKJPOSIT?
