Hi,
Let me explain my issue.
I have a main progm which is calling Sub Program,While calling it is passing the JOBNAME to SUB PROGRAM.In SUB PROGRAM by using some CA7 scripts it is triggering the job in CA7.
Ex: CALL SUBPROGRAM(JOBNAME)
Now I got a requirement to remove the SUBPROGRAM and asked to replace that with JCL to demand the job in CA7.
Here I have a JCL commands to replace the SUB PROGRAM code.
Can any one Please tell me how to do this.
Thanks,
Manohar |

I would have thought that the answer would be exceptionally straight forward.
The PL/1 program generates the CA-7 control statement(s) and the JCL of the subsequent step invokes the required program to process those statements. |

The PL/1 program is used to generate the required CA-7 control statements. These statements are then written to a file which is passed to the next step of the batch job.

This step reads the file created in the previous step and interfaces with CA-7 to trigger the required job.
Anything else ? |

Thanku for the info.
One curious question.
Can we pass the data from PL/1 to JCL?
Thanks, |

the concept has been told and repeated gazillions times
the only thing You can pass back to <JCL> is a numeric return code!
look at the relevant language manuals for the PLIRETC builtin |

| NO, not unless you wish to generate and submit a second job from the first job, which to my mind is a complete and utter waste of time given the current requirement. |

After 2 years and 4 months, I suspect there's not a lot of help you are providing, CyberKing. |
