Opleiding: z/OS REXX Programming Workshop [TDS_ES52G]
OVERVIEW
This course is designed to teach you the basic skills required to write programs using the REXX language in z/OS. The course covers the TSO extensions to REXX and interaction with other environments such as the MVS console, running REXX in batch jobs, and compiling REXX.
Virtueel en Klassikaal™
Virtueel en Klassikaal™ is een eenvoudig leerconcept en biedt een flexibele oplossing voor het volgen van een klassikale training. Met Virtueel en Klassikaal™ kunt u zelf beslissen of u een klassikale training virtueel (vanuit huis of kantoor )of fysiek op locatie wilt volgen. De keuze is aan u! Cursisten die virtueel deelnemen aan de training ontvangen voor aanvang van de training alle benodigde informatie om de training te kunnen volgen.
OBJECTIVES
After this course participants should be able to:
- Write programs using the REXX language
- Use various data parsing techniques
- Use built-in REXX functions
- Create user-defined internal and external functions and subroutines
- Issue host commands from within REXX execs
- Code programs that read and write data sets
- Use instructions and commands that manipulate the data stack
- Use REXX debugging tools
- Write error-handling routines
AUDIENCE
People who need to write and maintain REXX programs in the z/OS system environment.
