Category: Host Interfaces: ISPF
PROC OPTIONS GROUP= ISPF
z/OS specifics: all
Syntax
ISPMSG=variable-name
Details
The ISPF variables that are specified by both ISPMSG= and ISPCSR= are set by the
VDEFINE user exit whenever the exit finds an ISPF variable that has a zero length, or
whenever the SAS informat that is associated with the variable finds the value invalid.
The SAS VDEFINE user exit identifies variable-name to ISPF as a character variable
length of eight, placing it in the explicit function pool.
