Using edit assignment statements z/OS ISPF Edit and Edit Macros SC19-3621-00 |
|||||||||
You can use an assignment statement to pass edit parameters to
a macro or to allow a macro to set an edit parameter. If the edit
parameter keyphrase is on the right of the assignment statement, the
edit parameter is passed to the macro. If the edit parameter keyphrase
is on the left of the assignment statement, the edit parameter is
changed to the value on the right. In the assignment statement shown,
the edit parameter keyphrase is CAPS. The editor assigns the current
CAPS edit mode status (ON or OFF) to the variable CAPMODE.
When the editor finds a variable name in parentheses in a position
where a value is required, it substitutes the value assigned to that
variable. In these examples the edit macro sets the edit CAPS mode:
The second statement differs in that the editor receives the variable name and retrieves its value from the dialog variable pool. |
