High Level Assembler supports three types of symbols:
External symbols are ordinary symbols used in the name field of START, CSECT, RSECT, COM, DXD, and ALIAS statements, and in the operand field of ENTRY, EXTRN, WXTRN, and ALIAS statements. Symbols used in V-type and Q-type address constants are restricted to 8 characters, unless the GOFF option is specified, which allows symbols up to 63 characters. You can specify an alias string of up to 64 characters to represent an external symbol. |
