CEE3MDS—Get default decimal separator

CEE3MDS returns the default decimal separator for the country specified by country_code. For a list of the default settings for a specified country, see Table 1.


Syntax

>>-CEE3MDS--(--country_code--,--decimal_separator--,--fc--)----><

country_code (input)

A 2-character fixed-length string representing one of the country codes found in Table 1. country_code is not case-sensitive. If no value is specified, the default country code, as set by the COUNTRY runtime option or the CEE3CTY callable service, is used.

decimal_separator (output)

A 2-character fixed-length string containing the default decimal separator for the country specified. The decimal separator is left-justified and padded on the right with a blank.

fc (output)

A 12-byte feedback code, optional in some languages, that indicates the result of this service. If you choose to omit this parameter, refer to Invoking callable services for the appropriate syntax to indicate that the feedback code was omitted.

The following symbolic conditions can result from this service:

Code	Severity	Message number	Message text
CEE000	0	—	The service completed successfully.
CEE3C4	2	3460	The decimal separator '`decimal-separator`' was truncated and was not defined in CEE3MDS.
CEE3C5	2	3461	The country code `country-code` was invalid for CEE3MDS. The default decimal separator '`decimal-separator`' was returned.

Usage notes

If you specify a country_code that is not valid, the default decimal separator is a period (.).
z/OS UNIX considerations—CEE3MDS applies to the enclave. Every enclave has a single current country setting that has a single decimal separator. Every thread in every enclave has the same default.

For more information

See COUNTRY for an explanation of the COUNTRY runtime option.
See CEE3CTY—Set default country for an explanation of the CEE3CTY callable service.
