31-bit I/O macros - anyone remember when?

2007-12-06 Thread Greg Price
Hi. It is my recollection that when MVS/XA first came out the usual suspect group of non-VSAM I/O macors (GET/PUT/READ/WRITE/CHECK etc.) could not be issued when AMODE was 31. Now-a-daze AMODE can be 31 when issuing these macros, and this has been the case for years. My question for those with

I am pretty sure that the zLinux stuff supports above the bar. zLinux does not have neither a bar nor a line, does it? No need for it; there simply is no legacy AMODE24 code which needs compatibility support. -- Peter Hunkeler Credit Suisse
