Hi everyone:
I'm working with PL/I under MUSIC/SP under HERCULES simulator.
I want to sort a file, by several keys, But MUSIC Documentation says, the standard IBM libraries , still used today,PLISRTX are not available under music and that one can use SORT,MNSORT or DSORT.
Thing is SORT is just one key sort subroutine , MNSORT, is an user interfase multiple key application and DSORT a multiple key subroutine, that can be called from FORTRAN, COBOL OR PL/I. But DSORT is missing in MUSIC.
I managed to write a rexx script to call MNSORT, send parameters, but this is not possible from within PLI(f), with no spawn capability.
I found thar PLISORTX and DSORT were part of the original MVS for IBM/360, but it is beyond my means to rebuild that libraries from source code.
Does anyone know if it's possible to get those losto sort libraries and install them in MUSIC ?
Regards
