The ID (now CDD) folks had years ago made us refer to @,$,# as "special characters" rather than as "national characters". It is disappointing that they did not change the publications to be consistent with that directive. By all means point out the discrepancies that you spot. I'll bet that

It was never clear to me why the term "national" was picked in the first place. Although I worked for Volvo 14 years (jag Verkade på Volvo Lastvagnar fyrtio år) and on the Swedish side those keys produced characters in the Swedish alphabet - I don't remember which ones exactly, but probably

I think “Special" is a more accurate term today. For instance, I’ve used them to force some members to the top of a list based on sort order. Matt Hogstrom “It may be cognitive, but, it ain’t intuitive." — Hogstrom > On Jul 11, 2023, at 12:50 PM, Gibney, Dave >

Re: "National" characters

I believe that the distinction is still relevant today. The original use of the term national character was for special characters whose code points mapped to different glyphs in different EBCDIC code pages. Thus "." and "[" would both be special characters, but only "[" would be a national

C DLL abend CEE3350S

I've a LE C DLL I've built that contains a several modules. It has both C and a LE callable Assembler routines. When I first bound the moudle, it did not set CEESTART as the entry point, so I added an ENTRY CEESTART to the binder input deck. This results in a load module that shows the

Re: "National" characters

That's a definite maybe. You can certainly have a null in a quoted DSN, but you can't catalog it, which makes it pretty useless. I can see nulls in path names creating all sorts of havoc in a Eunix environment, but it's not my dog. PL/I allows the three national characters #, $ and @ in

Re: "National" characters

I think the term “national characters” has its origins in the COBOL standard. The “special” characters can produce some interesting output. I once had to deal with a Turkish customer who used Top Secret. User resources classes should begin with X’5B’, which in CP 1026 (Latin-5/Turkish) is İ.

We are having a LPAR being stood up on an outsourcing company's host. It will be for our use but they will manage it via the HMC's and possibly the OSA-ICC port. All regular access to the LPAR will be via 3270 and using our accounts. But a question was asked, what about OSA-ICC access. My

If you need to launch the Java virtual machine and invoke methods, it will be *much* easier to use C or C++ since you need to use "JNI" and the include files are provided and you need a LE XPLINK linkage and runtime environment. I've done that and it works fine (both 31 and 64 bit SDK

In the z/OS dlls that we have built that contain C, C++, and Assembler routines we don't reference CEESTART *anywhere* in our source tree. - Did you compile with: -W "c,dll,expo" ? - We bind our dll with z/OS Unix make using c++ (or c89, xlc) command as shown in "z/OS XL C/C++ User's

Re: C DLL abend CEE3350S

Do you have an INCLUDE for the CEESTART module? Does LE look for an eyecatcher that it recognises as CEESTART, not just an ENTRY which as Seymour says isn't the same. Take LET off the bind in case there's another hidden problem. On Wed, Jul 12, 2023 at 5:18 AM Eric Erickson wrote: > I know,

Re: Invoke Java from Assembler

Robert, This reminds me of a situation I ran into 25 years ago involving assembler and COBOL. Granted, COBOL and Java are different environments, but there may be enough similarity in the issues to be relevant. We had an assembler main program that called a COBOL subroutine repeatedly.
