Rexx Programmer's Reference


Book Description

&Quot;Whether you're new to Rexx or are an experienced Rexx programmer, this comprehensive reference offers you what you need to know in order to work with this easy yet powerful scripting language on any level. After a quick overview of the basics of Rexx, you'll move on to more advanced scripting topics such as portable code and optimal coding style.". "This book is for programmers on any platform who are either looking to learn Rexx or already use it and want to expand their knowledge of Rexx. A basic knowledge of programming is assumed."--BOOK JACKET.




Implementing REXX Support in SDSF


Book Description

The Restructured Extended Executor (REXX) language is a procedural language that allows you to write programs and algorithms in a clear and structural way. It is an interpreted and compiled language, and you do not have to compile a REXX command list before executing it. With IBM z/OS V1.9, you can harness the versatility of REXX to interface and interact with the power of SDSF. A new function called REXX with SDSF is available that provides access to SDSF functions through the use of the REXX programming language. This REXX support provides a simple and powerful alternative to using SDSF batch. This IBM Redbooks publication describes the new support and provides sample REXX execs that exploit the new function and that perform real-world tasks related to operations, systems programming, system administration, and automation. This book complements the SDSF documentation, which is primarily reference information. The audience for this book includes operations support, system programmers, automation support, and anyone with a desire to access SDSF using a REXX interface.

Object-Oriented Programming with REXX


Book Description

ON THE DISK YOU'LL FIND: * Sample programs and data such as Hello World * A calendaring/scheduling package * Utilities to help users rebuild desktop objects, show files with archive bits, and demonstrate usage of special variables * Examples showing O-REXX with OpenDoc and WorkPlace Shell classes Drawing from over 20 years of programming experience, leading OS/2 and LAN specialist Tom Ender covers O-REXX from the ground up. He begins with an overview and tutorial of traditional REXX and the GUI builders that facilitate REXX on OS/2. He then clearly presents the object-oriented concepts of O-REXX and the built-in classes that support implementation. He also discusses the future of O-REXX-particularly O-REXX on the Internet. You'll find * Valuable programming on debugging and WorkPlace Shell * An extensive overview of O-REXX variable types and objects * An actual calendaring and program scheduling application developed in O-REXX * A comprehensive description of native debugging tools * Coverage of OS/2 RexxUtil package as an example of a REXX utility Whether you're an OS/2 developer and programmer, systems or LAN administrator, software developer, systems programmer, or anyone looking to develop a working ability with O-REXX, Object-Oriented Programming with REXX is the right place to start.
