There are some good SHARE presentations on some of these techniques. Unfortunately for you, I'm too lazy to search for them.
However, and this is important, anything and everything you do that uses authorized services entails exposure of system integrity. It behooves any organization to ensure that its personnel writing such code are well-trained and thoroughly knowledgeable about how the system works, is designed, and what those exposures are. It's also perfectly clear many organizations, including many ISVs, do not. This kind of knowledge and experience doesn't come from blindly following two-sentence replies from who knows who on IBM-MAIN (I know who's who on IBM-MAIN, as many of us do, but how would a newbie know?). You could easily read a paper on the latest techniques in brain surgery. I'd be skeptical about your ability to do it, unless you had the prior training and experience it requires. The point is, you need that training and experience, and you also need to be able to train and study on your own, as there's very little in the way of formal education in our field. Neither IBM-MAIN nor StackOverflow are a substitute for the fundamentals. sas On Mon, Nov 12, 2018 at 1:56 PM David W Noon < 0000013a910fd252-dmarc-requ...@listserv.ua.edu> wrote: > On Mon, 12 Nov 2018 18:13:30 +0000, Farley, Peter X23353 > (peter.far...@broadridge.com) wrote about "Why are sophisticated > system-level coding examples not available?
