NM and CM callable. Provides an alternative method of specifying how records are output
from the SORT program. Syntax | |
CA I16
SORTOUTPUT(record,length);
|
Parameters | |
- record
16-bit character array Returns the next output record.
The format of this record is specified in the outputoption
parameter of the SORTINIT intrinsic.
- length
16-bit signed integer Returns the length of the record parameter value.
When no more records remain, the value of this parameter is set to -1.
Operation Notes | |
SORTOUTPUT signals the beginning of the SORT program and receives
each output record from the SORT program into an array specified by
the record parameter. SORTOUTPUT signals the end of the
input process if SORTINPUT intrinsic is called.
Use SORTOUTPUT only if the outputfiles parameter
in a call to the SORTINIT intrinsic is not specified.
If SORTINPUT is called, then SORTOUTPUT is called
only after SORTINPUT has passed all records. A call to
SORTOUTPUT always precedes a call to the SORTEND intrinsic. Condition Codes | |
- CCE (2)
Request granted. No error occurred during the SORT program. - CCG (0)
Not returned. - CCL (1)
Request denied. An error occurred during the SORT program.
