Chapter 26. Requesting dynamic allocation functions
SVC 99 parameter list verb codes and text units, by function
Using system symbols in text units
I see:
You can use system symbols to represent data set names, member
names, and path names in text units. You can specify system symbols in
the following text units
Verb code 01 - Dsname Allocation Text Units
DALDSNAM
DALMEMBR
DALPATH
How can I specify a pathname that is literally "/u/myself/&DATE",
avoiding system symbol substitution? Do I double the "&"?
Does this merit a RCF, or is it clarified elsewhere?
May the value of DALMEMBR before substitution be greater than 8
provided that substitution reduces it to 8 or fewer?
