Hi Charles,

It hasn't been mentioned but you could also use the SAPI interface.

File 790 on the CBT site has a package called "SRS" which is great for pulling 
the datasets from a job on spool.

Re: Sample program for JES dataset read?

[Charles Mills]

I've checked it out. There are a lot of moving parts among all of the 
interfaces; I was hoping for one complete sample. I have it working now (and 
without using SSI, so far).

FWIW, yes to BPXWDYN() and yes to fopen("//DD:ddname").

Perhaps I am over-complicating it. (I am just thinking; have not written any

I think I can use BPXWDYN() for that matter.

I am assuming that I can come down to fopen("//DD:ddname");

The only slightly tricky thing is the dynamic allocation, that that is pretty 
straight forward for the primary subsystem.
You can even use  __svc99() in the C library and then fopen("//DD:ddname",

Thanks. Possibly useful. Not sure at first glance if too "SDSF-specific" or not.

I would not be writing in Rexx but Rexx serves just fine as a "pseudo-code" 
language.

If Rexx is a suitable alternative, look at Rexx examples in the SDSF manual.
The interface does not require TSO: it's equally usable under Unix System
Services.

The scheme is to drill down through JobID, stepname, procstepname, to
DD name.  SDSF then allocates a generated DD name to that spool file.
An example reads from that to EXECIO DISKR (STEM.  I modified it to
LINKMVS IEBGENER after I overrode SYSUT1 to the name SDSF generated.

Re: Sample program for JES dataset read?

I'll trust that your look was as good as mine would be.  Maybe it's
considered too elementary to sample.

Oddly, I wrote such code eons ago, like on MVS/XA.  It used some SSI
requests for information, then basically proceeded as that link describes.

Sample program for JES dataset read?

Is there a sample program - say in SYS1.SAMPLIB or on the CBT tape (yes, I
looked) - that shows an example of how to allocate and read a JES spool
dataset?

How to do this, in other words: https://ibm.co/2IbrcGV
