Re: Rexx Exec Help Desperately Sought!

2012-08-02 Thread George Rodriguez 
I am very happy to report that with everyone's help and the manual I was
able to finish up this Rexx EXEC.

The execution of XMITIP was accomplished with:

XMITIP email_address CONFIG parm

I honestly appreciate all the help!

Thanks :-)

Re: Rexx Exec Help Desperately Sought!

2012-08-01 Thread Roger Bolan 
The XMITIP doc says that it will handle dsnames the same as TSO, that is,
partially qualified names get your prefix added, and fully qualified
dsnames must be inside single quotes.

I think you are just running into the way TSO parses the quotes.   You may
need to make sure the quotes get passed into XMITIP by doubling them.  For
example:
EX 'SYS2.LOCAL.CLIST(XMITIP)' '''TM#T.M.XMITIP.PARMCARD.userid1'''
That may be hard to see, so here is what that is:
1. One set of single quotes around the whole parameter value
2. 2 sets of single quotes (not double quotes) around the dsname so that
XMITIP will see 1 set of single quotes.
for a total of 3 single quotes on each side of the dsname.

Or, if you allocate 'SYS2.LOCAL.CLIST' to your SYSPROC ddname, you should
be able to do this:
%XMITIP 'TM#.M.XMITIP.PARMCARD'
and use only a single set of quotes.

When you are calling certain tools, the quote doubling may depend on how
many levels of CLIST or REXX are nested.  I once had a tool where I had to
put 6 single quotes on each side of a fully qualified dsname to be able to
pass a fully qualified dsname with a single set of single quotes all the
way to the inside.  It depends on how the clists or rexx expect to see the
quotes.

Regards,
--Roger

Then write your script in Rexx instead of CLIST.  Rexx allows
both double and single quotes, so the command becomes:

Assuming that he replaces userid with the userid, that's correct if

EX 'SYS2.LOCAL.CLIST(XMITIP)' '''TM#T.M.XMITIP.PARMCARD.userid'''

If SYS2.LOCAL.CLIST is in SYSPROC then I'd recommend avoiding the

I'm trying to execute XMITIP

Is it in your SYSPROC or SYSEXEC?

EX 'SYS2.LOCAL.CLIST(XMITIP)' how and what do I say here... I'm very
bad with syntax and when to use a single or double quote...

The REXX rules that you need to know are:

 1. A statement containing only an expression call the
default environment[1] with the value of the expression.

 2. You may use either apostrophe (') or quote () to delimit
constants. If the constant contains an instance of that
delimiter, you must double it, e.g., 'don''t'. I prefer to use
the alternate delimiter in such cases to avoid the doubling,
e.g., don't, 'this () is a quote'.

 3. If you separate two expressions with spaces, that is equivalent
to concatenating them with a single separating space.

 4. If you abut a constant with an expression, that is equivalent
to concatenating them.

 5. If you aren't trapping NOVALUE, REXX evaluates an uninitialized
simple[2] variable as its name in upper case.

You also need to understand TSO parsing. The second parameter to EXEC
must be quoted with apostrophes, forcing you to double any apostrophes
within that parameter. If XMITIP is in SYSEXEC or SYSPROC then I
advise you to call it directly, not with EXEC. Assuming that TM#T is
the HLQ, the variable user contains the userid and that
SYS2.LOCAL.CLIST is in SYSEXEC, I'd write something[3] like

'%XMITIP' 'TM#T.M.XMITIP.PARMCARD.user'

Note that I used  so I wouldn't have to double the '.

[1] In your case, TSO.

[2] The rules are more complicated for compound variables.

[3] I'm assuming that XMITIP takes a dsn as its first parameter

Try to run your exec to build the file first and then execute the XMITIP in the 
batch job as separate execs: 
(Somewhat like the following - not actually tested).

//STEP0030 EXEC PGM=IKJEFT1B,DYNAMNBR=50
//SYSEXEC  DD DISP=SHR,DSN=SYS2.LOCAL.CLIST

If XMITP is Rexx, and ID2EMAIL is Rexx and you own it, you
