I want to compare two PS datasets of LRECL 1000 and get byte-by-byte differences in the output file. I need an output file with differences for all 1000 characters. Can this be handled through SORT?

Thanks,

ISPF 3.13 can handle this if the parameters are set correctly. Use byte compare and listing type delta.

Robert, Thanks for your suggestion. We have already tried with these parameters. But the result we got was file with just first 80 characters of the record (output PS of LRECL 80). What I am looking for is output should be of same LRECL as that of input.

Hi,

If you have File Master in your shop they try the below JCL,


Code:

//* POSITION SELETS THE THE ROW FROM 1 TO 72 FOR PROCESSING     
//JSTP0010 EXEC PGM=CAWABATC                                     
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*                                           
//SYSLIST DD SYSOUT=*                                           
//SYSUT1  DD DSN=DEV2.CART.TO.DASD.PROC1(CMDCPD21),DISP=SHR     
//SYSUT1N DD DSN=DEV2.CART.TO.DASD.PROC(CMDCPD21),DISP=SHR       
//SYSIN DD *                                                     
  COMPARE POSITION(1,72)                                         
/*                                                               


Output i got is
Code:

2----+----3----+----4----+----5----+----6----+----7----+----
 ENCODING="UTF-8"?><IMS:SHOWINVOICE XMLNS:OA="HTTP:/       
 ENCODING="UTF-8"?>.<IMS:SHOWINVOICE XMLNS:OA="HTTP:/       
                   ***************************** ****       
                                                           
                                                           


It indicate the changes as *.

Regards
R KARTHIK
