REXX package in VM/370 Community Edition V1R1.2
I could help you with this, if I could see the "help and some other references" you refer to. Bob Bolch On Thu, Sep 14, 2023 at 7:37?AM Larry S <larryschacher@...> wrote: I found help and some other references to an external REXX Function package called REXXFUNC |

All the functions documented in the HELP REXXFUNC?MENU screen are implemented in the? RXUSERFN?MODULE or the RXLOCFN?MODULE with the source code on the MAINT 5E7 disk. When these functions?are used in your REXX program, REXX knows to look?in the function manager modules for these routines. The MODULEs are on the Y-disk, so there is nothing else to do to have them available.? Which of the functions return error 43? I would be glad to check into them.

Bob,
So far.... B2C fails B2D fails B2X works (Also native in brexx) CLOSE works Note that doc shows that close can't be called as a function. I was able to call close as a function, rc = CLOSE(infile) and received 0 as RETURN CODE. C2B fails D2B fails FSCLEAR works infile = 'FILETEST TEXT A' CALL OPEN infile Receives,,,, ???? 3 *-* CALL OPEN infile Error 40 running ft2, line 3: Incorrect call to routine FILETEST TEXT A is an existing file. I am very sick at the moment, but I hope to spend more time with this soon. Larry S |
Hi Larry, Hope you feel better soon. When you do please send the sections of a console that show the exact invocation of these functions? and the exact output they produce. I need enough detail to reproduce the errors. Best regards, Bob Bolch On Thu, Sep 14, 2023, 11:24 AM Larry S <larryschacher@...> wrote: Bob, |
