Is this preferable to my accidental discovery:
&STCKEVAL+0(8)
They both work; I suppose it depends on which is documented as supported
and which is more resilient against HLASM enhancements.
In context, "+0" looks more consistent/uniform:
UNPK YYYY(15),&STCKEVAL+0(8)
UNPK YYYY+14(15),&STCKEVAL+7(8)
UNPK YYYY+28(15),&STCKEVAL+14(8)
TR YYYY(32),XTAB Translate unpacked to hex
(or should these all be:
UNPK YYYY(15),&STCKEVAL.+0(8)
UNPK YYYY+14(15),&STCKEVAL.+7(8)
UNPK YYYY+28(15),&STCKEVAL.+14(8) )
(Is there a better way to translate a string to hex? I don't
feel I need a loop, or to learn TRL or TRG.)
Thanks,
