Dear all,
I try to call a C program via a JCL script. I get stuck in passing parameter
data to the C program search_modules. It is clear that I can pass these
parameters to BPXBATCH-PARM , but the limitation is the length of 100
characters of the PARM parameter. As I intend to pass more than one

Have you tried running BPXBATCH under TSO in batch??? You could create a
command of any length using the + continuation character. If you want to
feed in data via JCL you must create programs to read the PARM and write it
out as a file, then concatenate several of these outputs together to build
fopen (testlib, r) -- looks for file userid.testlib - TSO logic
fopen (\'testlib\', r) -- looks for file testlib - MVS dataset
fopen (dd:testlib, r) -- looks for dd-name
there are additional filename conventions for HFS files
This is how C (or LE) runtime works.
kind regards

Use BPXBATSL instead of BPXBATCH. It will do a local
spawn() which means your program will run as a subtask
of BPXBATSL. It will have access to all the DDs in the step.

Sven,
have you tried to open the file with another syntax, like
fopen(DD:TESTLIB,r)?
Cheers
