Contains the name of the current graphics device.
Type: |
Automatic macro variable (read and write)
|
The current graphics
device is the one specified at invocation of SAS. You can specify the graphics
device on the command line in response to a prompt when you use a product
that uses SAS/GRAPH. You can also specify the graphics device in a configuration
file. The name of the current graphics device is also the value of the SAS
system option DEVICE=.
For details, see the SAS documentation for your operating environment.
Note: The macro processor always stores the value of SYSDEVIC in unquoted
form. To quote the resolved value of SYSDEVIC, use the %SUPERQ macro quoting
function. ![[cautionend]](../../../../common/63294/HTML/default/images/cautend.gif)
Assigning a value to SYSDEVIC is the same as specifying
a value for the DEVICE= system option.
