PL/I SELECT statement Supported?

 

Hello All, does the version of PL/I that Hercules/MVS38 use support the SELECT/WHEN statement?? I get a compile errors on any SELECT statement.? Thank you, Dennis
 

No, but there are macros in the file section with the statement you need.

Do you have an example of the macro that is needed?
Thanks...
 

I mean in the file section of the Pl1f-And-Mvs38j group.

If you go to my website at :

applewood.linkpc.net/files/MVS380/pdfs?? then go to folder PL1


you will find all the manuals related to PL1 and programming etc under MVS.
 

Vince, I went and looked for the manuals, as I thought it was interesting. I found the index at your site says 0 files present. Am I doing something wrong? It shows the MVS380 area to be blank. I could not find the manuals.

Thanks,

Note the exact URL

I was able to select one of the PL1 manuals.

Note that the site does not use a secure funnel i.e., HTTPS??
Please try again

Attached is a copy of my SELECT/WHEN macro for PL/1 (F).
?
You can copy it into your program or use a %INCLUDE statement and the MACRO compiler option.? One word of caution - the SYSLIB file for PL/1 is restricted to a blksize of 400 or less.
?
It is not as good as the SELECTs in other PL/1 compilers but it is better than nothing.
