Variable Output

For the READDIR function, OPSPDS creates REXX stem variables that use the stem that is supplied in the third function argument.

• stem.0 contains a numeric integer value that indicates how many extra stem variables are created.
• stem.1 through stem.n contain the names of the members in the PDS, separated by blanks. Process all the blank separated member names in all the stem variables to process every member of a PDS.

  Note: If the member list is large, you may need to process multiple REXX variables.
