(IAR-XCT), SA22-7607-15:
1 The high-order byte contains the load module's APF
authorization code.
If the module's length value in doublewords is less
than 16M (2**24) and the module does not have the
RMODE(SPLIT) attribute, then the low-order three bytes
contain the module length in doublewords.
If the module's length value in doublewords is greater
than or equal to 16M (2**24), the low-order three
bytes contain zeros. To obtain the module length,
issue the CSVQUERY macro with the OUTLENGTH parameter.
If the module is a program object with the
RMODE(SPLIT) attribute, the low-order three bytes
contain zeros. To obtain the length and load point
information for each segment, issue the CSVQUERY macro
with the OUTXTLST parameter.
When the module is a program object bound with the
FETCHOPT=NOPACK option, the length value returned has
been rounded to the fullpage-multiple area obtained
with GETMAIN to hold the program object. If the
program object is bound with the FETCHOPT=PACK option,
the length value returned is the size indicated in the
directory entry. See z/OS MVS Program Management:
User's Guide and Reference and z/OS MVS Program
Management: Advanced Facilities for further information.
1. Why are you using EXTINFO?
2. How is the module bound?
3. What's in R1 after the load?
4. What are the results of CSVQUERY OUTLENGTH?
5. Are you doing the LOAD in the CICS main task?
