Sorry but I don't understand what re-entrancy has to do with how storage is backed. Care to explain?
I was referring to the practice of using GETMAIN to acquire working storage areas. This technique is most often employed by RENT programs.
Also, I assume by "have no control over the backing of storage" you meant that most older programs don't specify the required backing for their GETMAIN?
No. I meant that programs don't have control over where the storage, into which they are loaded by the contents supervisor, is backed. -- Edward E Jaffe Phoenix Software International, Inc 831 Parkview Drive North El Segundo, CA 90245 310-338-0400 x318 [email protected] http://www.phoenixsoftware.com/
