Comments - language syntax
Comments within the JCL scripts are preceded by the asterisk-slash (/*) characters.
Comments may begin at any line column and apply to the remaining portion of the line. No termination marker exists for a comment. Comments may be interspersed with script statements and their parameters.
The comment marker (/*) is ignored in the following situations:
- When embedded within textual data that is surrounded by quotes (for example, 'This /* is not a comment')
- When embedded within JCL that is contained in a JCL GEN... ENDJCL block
