Would AOPBATCH help?
//STEP010 EXEC PGM=AOPBATCH,PARM='sh'

"cp \"//'sys1.maclib(splevel)'\" /dev/fd/1" |
gzip >foosplevel.gz
//STDERR DD SYSOUT=*
//STDOUT DD SYSOUT=*

Subject: BPXBATCH Environment Variable concatenation - STDENV
[External Email. Exercise caution when clicking links or opening attachments.]
Hello list,
I can't find an elegant way to pass a variable containing a long string to a
USS shell command executed under BPXBATCH.
Looking at what the JVMLDMxx module (JVM invocation) does I tried something
like the following:
//RUNTEST EXEC PGM=BPXBATCH
//STDOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//STDERR DD SYSOUT=*
//STDENV DD *
IJO="-Xms16m -Xmx128m"
IJO="$IJO -verbose:class"
IJO="$IJO -Dfile.encoding=ISO8859-1"
//STDPARM DD *
SH echo $IJO
But the echo command returns the following:
"$IJO -Dfile.encoding=ISO8859-1"
Which shows that variable concatenation doesn't work as I would expect.
Manually executing the same commands under OMVS z/OS shell, everything works
fine:
IBMUSER:/u/ibmuser: >IJO="-Xms16m -Xmx128m"
IBMUSER:/u/ibmuser: >IJO="$IJO -verbose:class"
IBMUSER:/u/ibmuser: >IJO="$IJO -Dfile.encoding=ISO8859-1"
IBMUSER:/u/ibmuser: >echo $IJO
-Xms16m -Xmx128m -verbose:class -Dfile.encoding=ISO8859-1
I know I may use a real file, or even a USS file to write a single assignment
in one line, but I would like to avoid carrying unneeded baggage.
What I am doing wrong?
Thank you,
mario
