Accessing Main Storage: CORE › Chain CORE Commands

Chain CORE Commands

In general, if you need to execute several CORE commands to achieve a desired result, chain the commands together into one command. The format for chaining commands together is:

CORE=command1=command2=...=commandn

This is equivalent to sequentially executing the commands as follows:

CORE=command1
CORE=command2
CORE=commandn

Examples

The following examples demonstrate how to join CORE commands:

• To search the third storage area on the task's storage chain, enter:

  CORE=STCA@4@4@4=SCAN2000,C'RONALD'=MOVEIN,L=6,FROM=256ABC
  

  If the character string RONALD is found within hexadecimal 2000 bytes, CA InterTest for CICS replaces it with whatever is at address 256ABC.

• To get a one hundred byte storage area for the task that is waiting at a breakpoint, and set the address of the first byte (after the eight byte long Storage Accounting Area) into the fullword at the address in register 6, enter:

  CORE=GETM,L=100T+8=SET=R6@0
