Release 2.4 |
For z/VSE and z/OS customers:
Password maintenance has been simplified. |
|
|
For z/OS customers:
- A PROC is now provided to simplify usage from batch
- Since IEBUPDTE is used to re-load the changed members, changed
members containing any IEBUPDTE would caused problems replacing
the member. Members are now checked for IEBUPDTE update
statements and the job will fail if they are found. |

Release 2.3 |
The previous behavior of printing a
separate “hit” line on the report for every occurrence of the
scan string within the same line has been changed. Beginning
with this release, only one report line per input record should
be printed. See item 2 below to revert GSRMAIN to the previous
behavior. |
|
|
Two new “Print Matching String”
option values (options record, column 11) have been added:
-
‘F’ Print 'F'irst matching
line only. This value will cause scanning to stop with the
first record that contains any of the scan strings. When
used in combination with the 'C' "Print Option" setting (in
column 7), 'F' in column 11 will cause only one line per
member to be printed, and only for those members that
contain the scan string.
-
'E' Print 'E'very match
found. If 'E' is specified, then the output report will
contain a line for each occurrence of the scan string, even
if there are multiple occurrences on the same input record.
|
|
|
Release 2.2 |
A new version
of GSRMAIN is included, named GSRMAINL. GSRMAINL can scan
members up to 20,000 lines in size before writing the member to
the CHANGED file. This prevents updating members that are not
really changed unless they are greater than 20,000 lines long.
|
|
|
A new “userid”
option for ICCF members allows you to specify the userid to be
used when an ICCF member is changed. (This prevents the DTSUTIL
ADD from failing after the DELETE when the previous userid is no
longer valid.) |
|
|
The limit on the
number of programs that can be INCLUDEd or EXCLUDEd is increased
from 100 to 1000. |
|
|
The "line" numbers
of members are now printed under the member name, making it
easier to identify the line being displayed. |
|
|
A new option to
print a specified number of lines of the member after each
matched line allows you to see the lines affected in context. |
|
|
GSRMAIN and
GSRMAINL are compiled using COBOL/VSE. (If you do not have
COBOL/VSE, continue to run release 2.1.) |
|
|
The RETURN-CODE
variable ($RC or $MRC in the JCL) is now set to 0 if there are
members to update, 1 if there are not, or a higher number if
there was an error. This allows you to bypass the update step
if there are no updates to perform. |
|
|
Release 2.1 |
Changed the password update method.
Eliminated requirement to compile GSRMAIN. |
|
|
Release 2.0 |
Initial MVS release with PDS
support. Changed the VSE release number to match MVS version. |
|
|
Release 1.5 |
Added three option card fields (and
enhanced a fourth) to identify input/output types and lengths.
This will simplify installation procedures. |
|
Added password protection. |
|
|
Release 1.4 |
If there is a non-blank in position
72 (continuation character) and a replacement causes data to be
shifted to the right, shifting stops at position 71. |
|
If a replacement causes data to be
shifted to the left and position 72 is non-blank (continuation
character) and position 71 is not a blank and not a ',' (comma), a
truncation error message is printed. |
|
|
Release 1.3 |
When an unchanged member is written
to the CHANGED file, a message is written to the print file (see
item 4 under release 1.1 changes below). |
|
When COMPRESSED members are written
to the CHANGED file, a DTSBATCH job is created to issue a SQUEEZE
command for each of those members to recompress them after they
are reloaded with DTSUTIL. |
|
A DELETE option was added to allow
deleting any line that matches a given character string
(NEW=$DELETE-LINE$). |
|
|
Release 1.2 |
A new option to scan PHASE entries
in VSE libraries has been added. It can be used to find programs
that use certain modules (CICS programs using CURRENT-DATE, TIME
OF DAY, etc.). |
|
Show line number where match found. |
|
|
Release 1.1 |
The output file containing
scanned/changed members is not opened unless the input scan table
contains at least one "NEW=" entry indicating a REPLACE
will be attempted. If you are only scanning, you do not need JCL
for the 'CHANGED' file and you should not run the RELOAD or
DTSUTIL job to reload the CHANGED file. |
|
The 'blank' wildcard character (see
OPTION CARD, column 10) can now be used as a place holder in a
replacement character string to allow it to end with one or more
spaces. |
|
A new print option (column 11 of
the OPTION CARD) will reduce the volume of print by not printing
the line which shows the matching character string. |
|
Only changed members and members
longer that 5000 lines are written to the output file. A table
(400,000 bytes) was added to GSRMAIN to store members as they are
processed until we do a replace or the table gets full. GSRMAIN
needs a partition large enough to run a 490K program. |
