What if "value" is does not adhere to a DSN node restrictions? Using
bpxwunix() in a TSO REXX environment seems to be the way to go, at least at
present. I can do things like:
stdin.0=0
stdout.0=0
stderr.0=0
rc=bpxwunix("echo 'value'
>/usr/SystemREXX/values/GLOBAL.VARNAME",stdin.,stdout.,stderr.);
rc=bpxwunix("cat
/usr/SystemREXX/values/GLOBAL.VARNAME",stdin.,stdout.,stderr.)
if stdout.0 = 0 then signal NOVALUE
say "value is:"stdout.1
rc=bpxunix('rm
/usr/SystemREXX/values/GLOBAL.VARNAME",stdin.,stdout.,stderr.)
Just seems easier than messing with the z/OS catalog. This seems to work
OK. I just wish that I could do things more directly / efficiently.
