- Subject: MVS Clist Problem Resolved
- Lines: 26
-
- SASlers,
-
- A long, long time ago in a galaxy far, far away ...
- a problem was posted on SUG-L dealing with user created clists.
- The problems been resolved, thanks to Mark at SI and the usage note
- (V6-SYS.SYS 5380), and we're updating yall.
-
- In V 6.07 under MVS, a clist calling SAS with the LOG and PRINT
- operands to data sets may cause the log and list output to be routed
- to a single file, if the two data sets are identical except for the
- last level. For example
-
- SAS PRINT('''userid.OUTPUT''') LOG('''userid.OUTPUT.LOG''')
-
- As shown above, one data set name is completely contained
- in the other. Both the log and list output would be sent to
- 'userid.OUTPUT.LOG'.
-
- NOTE: this problem was fixed in Version 6.08.
-
- To circumvent this from happening:
-
- Have PRINT pointed to 'userid.OUTPUT.LIST' and LOG pointed to
- 'userid.OUTPUT.LOG'.
