These are data, and not direct link with JCL.
Wrong forum. |

Depends on whether this is DFSORT or Syncsort  |

Hi Pierre,
Yup, there is a "home" for DFSORT.
Syncsort topics tend to gather in JCL.

These are NOT BI values. BI values cannot be displayed directly and cannot be negative. FI values cannot be displayed directly but can be negative. BI and FI values can be displayed as hex or converted to displayable characters.
These look like FS (floating sign) values.
You need to explain more clearly what your input values look like. Do they actually look like you've shown, or are these converted values, or what? Showing the input records in hex would help.
Perhaps it's just a matter of using:
| Code: |
OUTREC BUILD=(1,4,FI,TO=ZDF)
|
but that's just a wild guess given that it isn't clear what your input actually looks like. |

Hi,
Let me clear my question:
I have used File aid to view that Binary value and from there the values are
I/P File
999999999
2147483647
1111111111
2147483647
2020952576
1020952576
And the Expected O/P file is
999999999
1020952576
1111111111
2020952576
2147483647
2147483647
And the o/p that I am getting is
099999999I
102095257F
111111111A
202095257F
214748364G
214748364G
The sort Card that I have used is
SORT FIELDS=(1,4,BI,A)
OUTREC BUILD=(1,4,BI,TO=ZD)
Why is the sort giving unexpected results and is there any way in getting the expected result.
I have used the following sort card to get the expected results but I would like to know why my other sort card is not working
SORT FIELDS=(1,4,BI,A)
OUTREC BUILD=(1:1,4,BI,EDIT=(TTTTTTTTTT))
Thanks for all your help |

The sort is giving the proper results. You asked for zoned-decimal output (which includes a sign) and that is what the output contains.
The letters A thru I are the positive values for 1 - 9. If you had any negative values, you would see J - R for minus 1 - 9.
Plus and minus zero are shown as { and }. |

thilakvs,
When I run a DFSORT job with your example input and control statements, the output has what you want:
| Code: |
0999999999
1020952576
1111111111
2020952576
2147483647
2147483647
|
Note that's because DFSORT uses an F for the positive ZD sign with TO=ZD. So if the last digit is 1, you will get X'F1' = '1'.
Since you are getting a C sign (X'C1' = 'A' instead of X'F1' = '1') that means you're NOT using DFSORT. I suspect you're using Syncsort which uses a C sign for the positive ZD sign with TO=ZD. If you were using DFSORT, you would get the result you expect. With Syncsort, you don't.
DFSORT allows TO=ZDF to specify F as the sign (equivalent to TO=ZD in DFSORT's case) - perhaps Syncsort allows TO=ZDF to change their default. |
