I have been learning REXX recently, i have been developing tools in rexx, my current tool needs to submit job and based on job input i need to submit further job. in my shop we use IOF instead of SDSF. have gone through the tutorials (http://www.triangle-systems.com/doc/7j/UG7JC18.HTM) , but the code present in the tutorial is not working.

following is the code to scroll through IOF pane,

Code:

/* Rexx multi-environment example */             
/* Determine exec name and environment */         
parse source . . myname . . . . . myenv .         
uid =userid()                                     
/* If not IOF environment, re-invoke the exec */ 
/* under IOF */                                   
if myenv \= 'IOF' then do                         
/* push the IOF command including any parms. In */
/* this example there are no parms. */           
 push "IOF *.%"                                   
 CONTROL END(ENDO)                               
 lock                                             
 TSICOPY NAME(ROWS) SECTION(PANEL) TO(CLIST)     
 SET &CURROW = 1                                 
 DO WHILE &CURROW LE &ROWS                       
 TSICOPY NAME(JOBNAME JOBID) TO(CLIST)           
 WRITE &JOBNAME &JOBID                           
 say JOBNAME                                     
 say JOBID                                       
 DOWNCTRL                                           
 SET CURROW = &CURROW + 1                           
 ENDO                                               
 UNLOCK                                             
 exit                                               
 /* exit the initial exec */ end                   
/* If IOF environment, process IOF subcommands */   
else do                                             
say 'i am in IOf'                                   
 address IOF                                       
exit end






when i execute the above code, i am getting the following error.

Code:

A hexadecimal reason code identifies the error. This code appears either on user's terminal along with the abend notification, or in the dump taken for the
abend.

explanation for reason code:

An abend X'0C4' occurred when validating user pointers Start of changeor a pointer was set to zeroEnd of change

This should show you the line causing the problems, then you'll need to find out why

Code:

SIGNAL ON SYNTAX NAME ERR
.
your code
.
ERR:
  SIGNAL OFF SYNTAX
  DROPBUF
  SAY "ERROR ROUTINE OUTPUT STARTING"
  SAY "ERROR ROUTINE OUTPUT STARTING"
  SAY "   "
  SAY RIGHT(SIGL,6) ">>>" SOURCELINE(SIGL)
  SAY "   "

Is END an external function? What is the syntax of CONTROL? Is CONTROL some keyword of the IOF/Rexx interface?

What I'm seeing here is a weird mix of Rexx and CLIST.

CONTROL END(ENDDO) is CLIST as is SET &CURROW = 1

You can't use CLIST type statements in a Rexx exec.

i need code to read IOF output through REXX, i modified code as below.

Code:

SIGNAL ON SYNTAX NAME ERR                           
parse source . . myname . . . . . myenv .           
uid =userid()                                       
/* If not IOF environment, re-invoke the exec */     
/* under IOF */                                     
if myenv \= 'IOF' then do                           
/* push the IOF command including any parms. In */   
/* this example there are no parms. */               
/* trace ?A */                                       
 push "IOF *.%"                                     
 /* TSICOPY NAME(JOBNAME) FROM(DIALOG) TO(REXX)     
 say 'jobname..' JOBNAME */                         
 JOBNAME = "JTAIN92.IOF.PARM"                       
 TSICOPY NAME(JOBNAME) FROM(DIALOG) TO(REXX) ROW(01)
 exit                                               
 /* exit the initial exec */ end                     
/* If IOF environment, process IOF subcommands */   
else do                                   
say 'i am in IOf'                         
 address IOF                             
exit end                                 
ERR:                                     
  SIGNAL OFF SYNTAX                       
  DROPBUF                                 
  SAY "ERROR ROUTINE OUTPUT STARTING"     
  SAY "   "                               
  SAY RIGHT(SIGL,6) ">>>" SOURCELINE(SIGL)
  SAY "   "

I cannot help you. I do not have access to IOF and it has been roughly 20 years since I used IOF. I just happened to look through the thread and observed the mixture of what appeared to be CLIST anf Rexx. I do have a generally favorable opinion about IOF based on my long ago use of it, but that's all I can say about it.

If this is the result of a SAY instruction then you are not showing all the code - and what precedes this is wrong otherwise PART2.0PART3.0 would surely have some real value.

Your first line of a program written in Rexx should be a comment containing the word "Rexx" - any case.

What was
Code:
TSICOPY NAME(JOBNAME) FROM(DIALOG) TO(CLIST) ROW(01)

is now
Code:
TSICOPY NAME(JOBNAME) FROM(DIALOG) TO(REXX) ROW(01)

Sheesh...

and the TS/OP is a Cognizant Project Manager.

'nuff said.
