Rexx script for reporting

[Anithab]

Hi,

I have a requirement to report

Stepname,ddname,dsn,first part of disposition

For ex :

Code: Select all

//DELETE  EXEC PGM=IEFBR14
//DD01    DD  DSN=ANITHA.TEST,
//            DISP=(MOD,DELETE,DELETE),SPACE=(TRK,(1,1))
//DD02    DD  DSN=ANITHA.TEST2,
//            DISP=(MOD,DELETE,DELETE),SPACE=(TRK,(1,1))

I need a Report like

Code: Select all

DELETE;DD01;ANITHA.TEST;MOD
DELETE;DD02;ANITHA.TEST2;MOD

For programs like

Code: Select all

//DELETE  EXEC PGM=TEST
//INP01    DD  DSN=ANITHA.INP01,DISP=SHR
//         DD  DSN=ANITHA.INP02,DISP=SHR
//OUT01    DD  DSN=ANITHA.OUT01,DISP=OLD

I need report like

Code: Select all

DELETE;INP01;ANITHA.INP01;SHR
DELETE;INP01;ANITHA.INP02;SHR
DELETE;OUT01;ANITHA.OUT01;OLD

At this moment, I am able to retrieve all the values seperately but need pointers how to make them like the one report
Any suggesion will be helpful

Code: Select all

this = 'something'
that = 'something else'
say this that

gives:

Code: Select all

somethng something else

Suggest you read up about concatenation as that is a basic part of Rexx.

Thanks Nic

I am aware of the concatenation too...

The issue I am facing is

First record = ' something'
Second record = ' something else'

Though I want like

Code: Select all

something something else 

I get

Code: Select all

something blank 
something something else

Could you throw pointers on where I would have went wrong?

All I do is something like this pseudocode below

Code: Select all

Do i=1 to eof
     IF EXEC found get stepname
     IF DD found get ddname
     IF DSN found dataset_name
     IF DISP found get disp_parm
     say stepname ddname dataset_name   disp_parm    
end

Though I know the logic above is not 100% correct for getting them in one line of reporting I dont know how to correct it

Any advice will help

Thanks

If you are looking for pointers
Try this :
1.Do a read record by record
2.You might need to store some temporary values and counts and based on which you might need be doing the write
