This chapter
covers the SAS/C Advanced Program-to-Program Communications/Virtutal
Machine (APPC/VM) functions. These are a set of SAS/C Library functions that
invoke the VM/SP APPC/VM Assembler programming interface. These functions
are defined according to Release 5 of VM/SP. These functions also work with
Release 6 of VM/SP and Release 1 of VM/ESA. For background information on
the VM/SP APPC/VM Assembler programming interface, refer to the appropriate
IBM documentation for your VM system. For a complete description of how the
SAS/C Library supports asynchronous signals and the use of signal-related
SAS/C functions, refer to Chapter 5, "Signal-Handling Functions," in SAS/C Library Reference, Volume 1.
Note:
SAS/C
does not provide its own interface to OS/390 APPC because the standard APPC
interface on OS/390 can be called directly from SAS/C programs. See Application Development: Writing Transaction Programs for APPC/MVS
(GC28-1121) for details.
The following table shows the APPC/VM functions
as implemented by the library.
