I apologize if this is a bit O.T., but the audience on this list seems to be a little more focused than IBM-MAIN for this kind of question....
I was curious about what would happen in the following scenario: Suppose you have a LE enabled "main" program written in C, that is normally invoked as a job step via "EXEC PGM=". The program accepts parameters in PARM=, but you can also set LE options for it (as with other LE programs) by putting them in the PARM before the first slash, e.g.: EXEC PGM=CLEPROG,PARM='HEAP(12M)/arg1 arg2". Now, suppose I have a small non-LE assembler program (call it "ASMXCTL"), that does a "XCTL EP=CLEPROG", passing the original R1 (PARM=)...... What would happen if I did this? - EXEC PGM=ASMXCTL,PARM='HEAP(12M)/arg1 arg2' Does the "main" initialization of "CLEPROG" process the LE options as before? Of course, I will have to try it I guess, but I was curious if one of the experts here knew what will happen and why... Thanks, Kirk Wolf Dovetailed Technologies http://dovetail.com
