SAS Component Language (SCL) Application |
The SAS Component Language (SCL) application that
is presented in this appendix, when used with the FSEDIT procedure or the
FSEDIT command, implements an order-processing and inventory-maintenance system.
Because the purpose of this example is to illustrate SCL programming techniques,
some error-handling and user-friendly enhancements were omitted to keep the
example as clear as possible.
This example exploits the features of SAS/SHARE that
allow several users to update a SAS data set at the same time. That capability
automates maintenance of the inventory data and allows data about the orders
to be maintained centrally, which can facilitate analysis of the orders that
have been received.
