Hi,

Would you pls let me know the E15 and E35 exit routines used for DFSORT and how can I implement them ?

Thanks,
Rimli.

Hello rimli,

During processing DFSORT allows you to plug in your own programming logic by supplying various user exit routines.

You can use an E15 routine to delete, change, or insert input records before sorting occurs. Likewise, you can use an E35 routine to delete, change or insert output records after sorting occurs.

Hope this helps you

Regards

Chapter 4 of "z/OS DFSORT Application Programming Guide" has complete information on DFSORT's E15 and E35 exits for Assembler and COBOL. You can access all of the DFSORT books online from:

www.ibm.com/servers/storage/support/software/sort/mvs/srtmpub.html

Here's a direct link to the Chapter on exits:

Hi,

Somehow I am not able to access any of the above mentioned links.
I will be thankful if you could send me the content of "z/OS DFSORT Application Programming Guide" (chapter 4 only) itself as an attachment to my mail-id.

Thanks and regards,
geeta

If you can't access those links, there's something wrong with your set up.
They're external links available to everyone. Can you access Use [URL] BBCode for External Links?

I could e-mail you the .pdf file for that book (I can't separate out Chapter 4). But you didn't say what your e-mail address is. If you like, you can send me an e-mail (yaeger@us.ibm.com) asking for the book and I'll reply. Please put "DFSORT" somewhere in your Subject line to catch my attention.
