But what bothers me much more is when someone writes a macro definition and does not allow for a symbolic label to be propagated onto the first generated line of macro expansion. E.g., if I code LABELXYZ GETMAIN parm1,parm2,blahblah then I don't expect to see this: LABELXYZ not found
IBM does this one the other side, too. I'm used to putting comments and change dates on code, but there are several macros that explicitly check for parameters and fail; e.g. GTSIZE , GP05197 gets you a parameter error message, whereas SPACE , and 'normal' macros don't.
