If you now mark your program AC(0), it could call the AC(1) IEBCOPY which would simply run unauthorized. In fact, you would be relieved of the burden of coding to APF criteria.
OTOH, a vendor with a program which: o Uses IEBCOPY o Must be AC(1) for reasons not related to IEBCOPY ... is now impacted in that calling IEBCOPY causes his program to lose authorization/ ABEND/whatever. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
