Hi Scott, I assume you're just trying to avoid copying a large amount of data into your Cobol program? Depending on what exactly your assembler does, maybe you could split the assembler routine into 3: one routine to open and extract the RACF data, one routine called multiple times per userid to extract the RACF data for that user, and one routine to close and free the RACF data.
Cheers, Dave Griffiths From: scott Ford <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Date: 13/02/2017 15:02 Subject: A design question Sent by: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> All: I have the following: 1. Cobol STC 2. It calls an Assembler subroutine with does a RACF extract of the database for all userids and then writes to an output file. 3. Is it possible to have the Assembler routine place the extracted data into a unix pipe or a C type=memory file and then i can retrieve it ? Or is that to Mickey Mouse ..??
