Invoking the binder

z/OS MVS Program Management: Advanced Facilities
SA23-1392-00

Your program calls the binder using MVS™ linkage conventions:
  • Register 1 contains the address of the parameter list.
  • Register 13 contains the address of an 18-word register save area.
  • Register 14 contains the return address.
  • Register 15 contains the IEWBIND entry point address.

Upon return from the binder, you can examine the return and reason codes. Fullword return and reason codes are returned in registers 15 and 0, respectively. They are also saved in the storage areas identified by the RETCODE and RSNCODE addresses in the parameter list if those addresses are nonzero.
