Oooh! Neat! Thanks. And I see:
z/OS MVS Program Management: User's Guide and Reference
SA23-1393-00
STRIPSEC={PRIV|YES | NO}
STRIPSEC=PRIV
Specifies that unreferenced unnamed sections are to be removed.
This addresses a misbehavior of SMP/E which secularly piles up private
sections (Which I think are something programmers should avoid anyway.
But Pascal reportedly dotes on them.)
Note: For a section to be considered unreferenced, it must:
...
Not be the target of a control statement
(Such as ORDER?)
Does SMP/E respect STRIPSEC? Does it cause no problems, e.g. with
RESTORE? How might it interact with the "++MOD(...) CSECT(...)"
argument?
Thanks again,
gil
