Detailed Description

These are utility macros used to create dataset copies in a chosen folder for debugging purposes when QRP_DEBUG is set to Y.

• Create a debug directory and assign the libname.
  
  • Clear the content in case it already exists.
    
• Copy a dataset from a source library to a destination library.
  
• Copy all datasets from work to a destination library. Files to be copied can be restricted to those beginning with a particular prefix.
  
  • Assign the dataset name to a macro variable.

Usage

%createDebugLib(DEBUGLIBNAME=debug&Group.,
                PATH=%str(&DPLOCAL.debugdata/&runid./&ITGROUP.));

Parameters

[in]	DEBUGLIBNAME	Debug library name
[in]	PATH	Path to assign debugLibName

MACRO 2.

Program inputs

• &SOURCELIBNAME..&FILENAME. (Dataset(s) to be copied in a debugging folder.)

Program outputs

• &DEBUGLIBNAME..&FILENAME.&SUFFIX. (Dataset(s) copied in a debugging folder.)

Usage

Usage

%copyDebugFiles(PREFIX=_group,
                SUFFIX=,
                DEBUGLIBNAME=debug&Group.);

Parameters

[in]	PREFIX	Files to be copied will be restricted to those beginning by the prefix value .
[in]	SUFFIX	Suffix to add at the end of the copied file.
