By modifying the JCL procedures used to compile or assemble your applications, you can automatically update the symbolic information in your PROTSYM file every time a program is rebuilt. This is the easiest way to help ensure that the symbolic information in your PROTSYM file matches the executable for every program. This is also the method that CA Technologies recommends for maintaining symbolic information.
Alternatively, you can save the listings from your compiles or assemblies and load the symbolic information later as needed. If you choose this method, you can load symbolic information into your PROTSYM file using a separate batch job. CA Technologies provides batch utilities that let you load one or more program listings residing in partitioned data sets (PDS or PDSE), CA Librarian, CA Panvalet, or CA Endevor SCM format.
Some of the CA Application Quality and Testing Tools products provide additional online functionality for viewing and maintaining PROTSYM files. For more information about the online utilities for any CA Technologies product, see the User Guide for that product.
