CA JCLCheck Runtime Options › Description of Runtime Options › STDREXX

STDREXX

The STDREXX option enables you to use the REXX programming language for data center JCL standards enforcement.

The REXX EXEC specifies the REXX EXEC to use for job control standard checking.

This option has the following format:

STDRexx(REXX EXEC member name[,REXX EXEC DD name]) | NOSTDrex

REXX EXEC member name

Identifies the PDS member name that contains the REXX EXEC CA JCLCheck should use for standards enforcement. This must follow standard PDS member naming conventions. The library containing the REXX program is specified by your REXX installation defaults data definition name (ddname).

REXX EXEC DD name

Specifies an optional, alternate DD name used to load the REXX EXEC member name. If omitted, the standard DD name of SYSEXEC is used.

NOSTDrex

Specifies no REXX EXEC is in use.

CA JCLCheck invokes the REXX EXEC for each JCL statement.

The REXX environment created for this interface varies according to the runtime environment. This means that certain TSO/E specific functions are not valid under non-TSO/E address spaces. This is because you can run this interface under any supported environment (Batch, TSO, and so forth).
