 Posted: Sun Sep 21, 2003 3:39 am Post subject: How to get PDS name from which REXX is executed |
 |

Hi All,
I want to get the PDS from which rexx is being executed. This pds name will be used for some other purpose down the line in the program. How do I do it?
Please suggest a solution ASAP
TIA

askids,
Try this
| Code: |
/*rexx */
address isredit
" macro"
"(ds) = dataset"
"(mem) = member"
Say 'The pds being execueted is 'ds' and the member is ' mem

I am not looking for this. I am trying to get the pds name where this REXX program is stored. Say for ex: I have the REXX program in my userid.REXX.EXEC. I want to get this name in the program. How do I get this?
Sorry...If I was not clear with my question before.
TIA

Askids,
I assume that you are searching for a member in a pds, but you do not know the name of the pds.Here is a sample rexx code written by Doug nadel which will give you the name of the PDS.You need to supply the High-level qualifier along with the member name.
Save this proc as a member or a dataset.To execute this type the following command at your command prompt.
| Code: |
EXEC 'USERID.REXX.EXEC(findmem)' 'USERID MEMBER' exec
|
| Code: |
Parse Upper Arg hlq member
Address ispexec
if member='' then do;say 'Parameter(s) missing.';exit;end
"CONTROL ERRORS RETURN"
"CONTROL REFLIST NOUPDATE"
"LMDINIT LISTID(LISTID) LEVEL("hlq")"
dlistrc=rc
dsn=""
Do While dlistrc=0
"LMDLIST LISTID(&LISTID) OPTION(LIST) STATS(YES) DATASET(DSN)"
dlistrc=rc
If zdldsorg="PO" Then
Do
"LMINIT DATAID(INDID) DATASET('"dsn"') ENQ(SHR)"
If rc=0 Then
Do
"LMOPEN DATAID(&INDID) OPTION(INPUT)"
If rc=0 Then
Do
"LMMFIND DATAID(&INDID) MEMBER("member")"
If rc=0 Then
Say member' - 'dsn
End
"LMFREE DATAID(&INDID)"
End
End
End
"LMDFREE LISTID(&LISTID)"
"CONTROL REFLIST UPDATE"
|
Hope this helps...
cheers

Kolusu,
Im not sure, if the REXX shown by you will meet askids requirement.
Say, you have a rexx like this in your dataset concatenated to sysproc/sysexec.
| Code: |
/* rexx - spn */
say 'This is just for testing"
|
Now when this code is executed from the command shell, he would say
tso test(*assume test is the name of the member in which this rexx is written*). Now the code, shown by you would display all the PDS'es that contain the member test and you also need to pass your "your user id " and "test" as parameters.
I guess the solution would be something along these lines:
> Find all the datasets concatenated to SYSPROC/SYSEXEC.
> Parse the command itself inside your REXX and find out the member name. (TEST in this case)
> Search for the member name in the datasets.
Correct me If Iam wrong?
Cheers,
Coolman.

How r you going to execite this rexx, maybe, 'TSO EX ....'. In this case it should be easier to retreive the last command and find dsn from there. How to do this I don't know. Sorry  |

coolman,
As my post clearly states that I assumed that he wanted to scan for a pds member and the rexx exec gives you that. But that may not be the case, as intrepreted by you. so lets wait for askids clarification
Thanks
