a Unique situation, where Xpediter's CWPCMAIN (pre-processor) step compile listing feeds out to a lib to be used by Intertest

[Ronald O'Loughlin]

We are trying to kill (so to speak) more than two birds with one stone. We want all listings (whether batch or CICS) to be stored in DDIO's. Now, we have found too many programs have the following copy statements option 'SUPPRESS' being used. Which if we use the post process utility after the IGYCRCTL to store into a DDIO, it will not accept it. But the pre-process utility CWPCMAIN will. It of course calls out to IGYCRCTL and at the same time deal with the SUPPRESS and then stores into the DDIO directly. Now we use Xpediter for batch only. We use INTERTEST for CICS. So when we capture that listing from the pre-processor CWPCMAIN it puts a whole set of CBLs into the listing. Which when you feed the listing thru to INTERTEST it coughs it up (so to speak). So now we are looking for a way to suppress (I know ironic isn't it) the CBLs out of CWPCMAIN so that the listing doesn't have them and INTEREST is happy. If we can do this then the one utility can serve multiple purposes.

BTW if you know the opposite solution. Where Intertest can be told to ignore the extra info, that would work too.

Thoughts?

BTW, yes we could use IF then Else call on the correct things etc. However there seems to be a 'want' to use just the one utility. Besides we would still need to run CWPCMAIN to get by the COPY SUPPRESS issue to store in a DDIO.

Which would mean running two compiles. Not a pretty picture.

A follow up,

This is what Intertest doesn't like, is there a parm to tell Intertest to ignore or accept them?

Hi Ronald,

 

We recently had a client that encountered a simulator problem which was resolved by setting CSS parms: PROC($NO)” in their CWPCMAIN utility to suppress the generated CBL statements.

[Ronald O'Loughlin]

Tried it and it seems that Intertest took in the listing and tested fine. Thanks for that confirmation.

[Ronald O'Loughlin]

I realize this is a CA Intertest forum but wondering with removal of the CWPCMAIN generated CBL statements, did the Xpediter use of the stored listing without the CBL statement in DDIO work ok? We're waiting to have a user test that.

[William Gangi]

I have no feedback on that.
