Hello list members, This is my first post to this list. I've been working on MVS for some decades and have been an active member of IBM-MAIN for many years. This time I need some help with an assembler macro. In former times I've programmed in assembler quit a lot. However, this knowledge is a bit rusty.
I want to modify a macro I've written long ago to generate reentrant code. For that, I'm asking for two new parameters: WORKA= and WORKL=, the address of a workarea (in dynamically allocated storage) for the macroo use, and the length of that area. The code generated varies in length, depending n what parms are specified on the macro. Some of what he code does is to generate list forms of other macros inline plus the instructions to move that part to the workarea, where it can be further modified by my macro. I want the macro to check that the length of the code generated does not exeed the length of the workarea as indicatedby WORKL=. I have not come up with a way to get the length of a code section the macro generated into macro variables, so that I can compare to WORKL= and abort if neccessary. -- Peter Hunkeler
