It doesn't fail with the latest level, and I suspect this might
be a symptom of the problem fixed by

We probably need to clarify some of the terminology in the books
and the message explanations. The word "defined" normally
simply means that the definition of a symbol has already been
seen, but does

Is the EQU something you can't change? If you need it as the value then code it
as both value and length so it can be accessed as a value
Is the EQU something you can't change? If you need it as the value then code it
as both value and length so it can be accessed as a value and length. In your
case, the value will always resolve to a number so it is always a valid length.

Joao, In your case, the value is always a number that is used to specify the
length of a variable. Why can't you specify this length number as the second
EQU arg instead of the first arg which is the value that can be extracted using
L

Like DC & DS, you
Like DC & DS, you can fully define a variable using EQU. The second EQU parm
allows you to define a length that can be queried using SETA L'EQU_LABEL
from EQU_LABEL EQU ,30.
Another possibility is to use DS 0AL4(EQU_LABEL) will display the value in the
listing but the 0 causes the field to
Thank you Jonathan but it seems I don't have these APARs installed.

If you have a recent maintenance level of HLASM, including APAR
PH34116 from February 2021, you can use SETA to obtain the
Hi
Is there a way to know the real value of the LEN below when I use a variable
instead of a value?
MACRO
WORK =0
DS XL()
MNOTE *,LEN=
MEND
WORK LEN=wklen
Wklen equ 32
In the sample above the mnote says LEN=WKLEN but I preferred LEN=32 instead.
