I was recently given this task. it's a very IBM mainframe specific task so I'm not sure how to find equivalent terms in another environment. I will just use the mainframe terminology and hopefully y'all can figure out what I mean.
Given a list of DBRM members create a JCL which has a series of bind statements for each DBRM. This is the tack I took. I have 3 input files a_ contains the fixed part of the JCL b_ contains the template for the bind statement. c_ contains the list of DBRMs This is the script I came up with...Would you critique it and let me know how I could have done it better? #create a series of bind statements fo = open('i:/text/jclout.txt', 'w') fi = open('i:/text/bindjclfirstpart.txt','rU') fibindjclvar = open('i:/text/bindjclvariable.txt','rU') filistofdbrms= open('i:/text/bindjcldbrmlist.txt','rU') varlines =[] varlines = fibindjclvar.readlines() for line in fi: #write out all the lines in the first part of JCL fo.write(line) fo.write('\n') varline = '' for dbrm in filistofdbrms: fo.write('\n') for index in range(0,9): if varlines[index].find('member') > 0: varline = varlines[index] + '('+ dbrm + ')' + ' -' else: varline = varlines[index] fo.write(varline) fo.close() fi.close() fibindjclvar.close() filistofdbrms.close() The "variable" part of the bind statement is where I have to include the DBRM name. I look for the word 'member' in the template. Template looks like this (content of bindjclvariable.txt) BIND PACKAGE(PROD) - MEMBER OWNER(PRODOWNR) - QUALIFIER(PRODTBLS) - ISOLATION(CS) - EXPLAIN(YES) - ACTION(REPLACE) - CURRENTDATA(YES) - VALIDATE(BIND) Thanks!
