Seymour “respectfully ” that’s for QSAM in locate mode BSAM doesn’t have a locate mode the user supplied the I/O area
This snippet is from code that is re-entrant I remember a long time ago I wrote program here at the IRS using bsam and got storage from subpool zero There is one program here at the IRS that uses bsam most of the programs are qsam in locate mode I would ask but they don’t like it if I contact developers > On Mar 23, 2023, at 9:40 AM, Seymour J Metz <sme...@gmu.edu> wrote: > > The access method handles page fixing unless you specify DCBE FIX=USER. > > > -- > Shmuel (Seymour J.)
