Does zPipes have a similar facility with a different name?
Some programmers will have existing z/OS UNIX filters that they'd prefer not to refactor as zPipes. Does zPipes provide a UNIX interface. I suppose that could be achieved with Rexx plumbing, connecting stdin to input connector; stdout and stderr to output connectors 0 and 1 (CMS Pipelines jargon) and SYSCALL spawn. Could such a stage operate concurrently with other stages? Difficult in CMS because of the CMS single processor single address space paradigm; restrictions not afflicting z/OS. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
