Bernd, I don’t think that code handles the XTIOT (above the line), which is
pretty commonly standard these days.

Subject: Re: JAVA: Can it handle TIOT read?
Don't know, if this helps, but this is a function that reads the TIOT,
looking for a certain DDNAME, and returning success (pointer to the TIOT
entry)
or fail (NULL).
This is ANSI C. No DSECTs or structure definitions needed.
Cheers,
Bernd
static char *check_ddname (char *ddname)
/************************************************/
/* */
/* Vorgegebener DDName wird gesucht */
/* */
/************************************************/
{
char *adresse_tcb;
char *adresse_tiot;
char *laenge_tiot;
char *ddname_tiot;
adresse_tcb = adressiere_tcb ();
adresse_tiot = *(((char **) adresse_tcb) + 3);
for (laenge_tiot = adresse_tiot + 24;
*laenge_tiot != 0;
laenge_tiot += *laenge_tiot)
{
ddname_tiot = laenge_tiot + 4;
if (memcmp (ddname_tiot, ddname, 8) == 0)
{
return ddname_tiot;
}
}
return NULL;
}
Oh, I forgot the function to retrieve the address of the TCB:
static char *adressiere_tcb (void)
/************************************************/
/* */
/* Über die TIOT (Task-IO-Table) */
/* werden die DDNamen und die */
/* zugeordneten DSNamen gesucht */
/* */
/************************************************/
{
char ***cvt_pointer;
char **tcb_tabelle;
cvt_pointer = *((char ****) 16);
tcb_tabelle = *cvt_pointer;
return *(tcb_tabelle + 1);
}
Comments in German language, sorry for that.
