LINKDATE
The LINKDATE parameter selects a group of members from a PDS based on the member's link date. The from or to-date range is specified in the ccyy/mm/dd format. Valid only with the LMODCLAS, LMODMAPA, LMODDIR, and LMODMAPN functions.
The syntax of the LINKDATE parameter is:
LINKDATE=(from-date,to-date)
(,to-date)
(from-date)
from-date
(,to-date)
(from-date)
from-date
from-date,to-date
Specifies the endpoint from and to-dates, in the format ccyy/mm/dd to select modules for mapping. The dates can be complete or partial. Leading zeros are required when specifying the year, month, and day.
- If the FROM date is omitted and a TO date is specified, File-AID selects all members linked on or before the specified TO date.
- If a FROM date is specified and the TO date is omitted, File-AID selects all members linked on or after the specified FROM date.
Entering the same dates in the FROM and TO fields selects members linked only on that date.
Example:
$$$DD01 LMODMAPN LINKDATE=(2000/01/01,2000/06/30)
This example lists all modules in the data set with a link date on or between January 1, 2000 and June 30, 2000 in name order.
