Thank you for pointing that out. I don't know what I was thinking. I'm going by the intercommunication guide and it clearly states:
Changes made to input/output fields (for example, the ExitUserArea field), are preserved for invocations of that instance of the exit only. Such changes cannot be used to pass data between different exits defined on the same channel, or between the same exit defined on different channels. I'm not sure why I chose the area after the exituserarea. Thanks again. I would have been debugging to no end. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Thursday, May 28, 2009 8:56 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: z/OS STORAGE service <snip> Passing just to itself via a "STCM R1,B'1111',MQCXP_EXITDATA" at exit init time. Then I plan to release it at exit termination time. I haven't figured out how I can continue to reuse it over and over between different invocations. <SNIP> MQ Channel Exits are strange animals. They are not like Z/OS or CICS Exits. Channel Exits do Not Run Authorized. they do Run under the MCA. MQ Channel Exits are More Like a TSO job Submit exit, the exit gets driven several times for each Channel Connect. MQCXP_EXITDATA might not be appropriate for waht you want to do. If I recall correctly that field is populated from the Channel Deffinition. It is used to pass user Specific Deffinition information to the Chanel Exit program. A better choice might me MQCXP_USERAREA. this is a 16 byte field preceeding MQCXP_EXITDATA. ____________________________________________________________ Click here for to find products that will help grow your small business. http://thirdpartyoffers.juno.com/TGL2141/fc/BLSrjpTI97vGLfkvA8OmTyu4y5Nb 7LLyQ96378HQGPUyLkvhItBm1oFkNWI/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html ========================== This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to which they are addressed.
