Selected System Options Used in the Macro Facility

IMPLMAC

Controls statement-style macro invocation.

MACRO

Controls whether the SAS macro language is available.

MAUTOCOMPLOC

Displays in the SAS log the source location of the autocall macros when the autocall macro is compiled.

MAUTOLOCDISPLAY

Displays the source location of the autocall macros in the SAS log when the autocall macro is invoked.

MAUTOLOCINDES

Specifies whether the macro processor prepends the full pathname of the autocall source file to the description field of the catalog entry of compiled auto call macro definition in the WORK.SASMACR catalog.

MAUTOSOURCE

Controls whether the macro autocall feature is available.

MCOMPILE

Allows new definitions of macros.

MCOMPILENOTE

Issues a NOTE to the SAS log upon the completion of the compilation of a macro.

MCOVERAGE

Enables the generation of coverage analysis data.

MCOVERAGELOC

Specifies the location of the coverage analysis data file.

MERROR

Controls whether the macro processor issues a warning message when a macro-like name (%name) does not match a compiled macro.

MEXECNOTE

Displays macro execution information in the SAS log at macro invocation.

MEXECSIZE

Specifies the maximum macro size that can be executed in memory.

MFILE

Determines whether MPRINT output is routed to an external file.

MINDELIMITER

Specifies the character to be used as the delimiter for the macro IN operator.

MINOPERATOR

Controls whether the macro processor recognizes the IN (#) logical operator.

MLOGIC

Controls whether macro execution is traced for debugging.

MLOGICNEST

Allows the macro nesting information to be displayed in the MLOGIC output in the SAS log.

MPRINT

Controls whether SAS statements generated by macro execution are traced for debugging.

MPRINTNEST

Allows the macro nesting information to be displayed in the MPRINT output in the SAS log.

MRECALL

Controls whether the macro processor searches the autocall libraries for a member that was not found during an earlier search.

MREPLACE

Enables existing macros to be redefined.

MSTORED

Controls whether stored compiled macros are available.

MSYMTABMAX

Specifies the maximum amount of memory available to the macro variable symbol table or tables.

MVARSIZE

Specifies the maximum size for in-memory macro variable values.

SASAUTOS

Specifies one or more autocall libraries.

SASMSTORE

Specifies the libref of a SAS library containing a catalog of stored compiled SAS macros.

SERROR

Controls whether the macro processor issues a warning message when a macro variable reference does not match a macro variable.

SYMBOLGEN

Controls whether the results of resolving macro variable references are displayed for debugging.

SYSPARM

Specifies a character string that can be passed to SAS programs.
