Re: Is Commuication ECB valid for subtask
There is only one communication ECB supported by the operating system for reflecting STOP or MODIFY commands to a task, but that task can certainly have many other non-key-0 ECBs which it uses to communicate with its subtasks. -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:ibm-m...@bama.ua.edu] On Behalf Of Binyamin Dissen Sent: Friday, July 02, 2010 8:58 AM To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu Subject: Re: Is Commuication ECB valid for subtask On Fri, 2 Jul 2010 09:46:34 -0400 Joe Reichman wrote: :>If I get address of a communication ECB in a main program then I create :>subtasks should I be waiting on that ECB (for a stop or Modify command) in :>the main program or in the subtasks as well :>In other words Can the communication ECB be posted in the subtasks as well I wouldn't think so a it is in key0 storage, but as there is bypass code for wait perhaps there is also bypass code for post.

Is Commuication ECB valid for subtask
Hi, If I get address of a communication ECB in a main program then I create subtasks should I be waiting on that ECB (for a stop or Modify command) in the main program or in the subtasks as well In other words Can the communication ECB be posted in the subtasks as well thankx -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
