51746 - Creating DS2 overloaded methods in a permanent package

Sample 51746: Creating DS2 overloaded methods in a permanent package

The sample code below demonstrates how to create DS2 packages with overloaded methods and store them in a permanent library.

libname ds2_pkg 'your_permanent_location';

proc ds2;
   package ds2_pkg.calc_volume / overwrite=yes;
/* Volume of a cube. */
   method volume (int side) returns int;
   return side*3;
   end;
/* Volume of a cyclinder. */
   method volume (double radius, int height) returns double;
   return 3.14*radius**2*height;
   end;
/* Volume of a cuboid. */
   method volume (double len, int base, int hgt) returns double;
   return len*base*hgt;
   end;
   endpackage;
run;

data _NULL_;
/* Declare global variables here */
   dcl package ds2_pkg.calc_volume v();
   dcl int box_side box_volume my_height my_base my_hgt;
   dcl double my_radius cylinder_volume my_len cuboid_volume;

   method run();
   box_side = 4;
   box_volume = v.volume(box_side);
   put 'volume of box is: ' box_volume;

   my_radius = 3.5;
   my_height = 9;
   cylinder_volume = v.volume(my_radius,my_height);
   put 'volume of cylinder is: ' cylinder_volume;

   my_len = 90;
   my_base = 85;
   my_hgt = 20;
   cuboid_volume = v.volume(my_len, my_base, my_hgt);
   put 'volume of cuboid is: ' cuboid_volume;

   end;
   enddata;
run;
quit;
