Using the system programmer interface with dynamic load

GDDM V3R2 Base Application Programming Guide
SC33-0867-01



If an application program uses only the system programmer interface (SPI), all invocations of GDDM are through the entry point ADMASP. This entry point can be resolved by link-editing the application program with one of the GDDM interface modules, ADMASPI or ADMASPJ, as described above.

However, the application program can avoid these linkage-edit considerations by using system facilities (the OS LOAD function) to dynamically load a GDDM interface module (ADMASPLI for non-PL/I PSBs or ADMASPLJ for PL/I PSBs). The main entry points for these modules are defined both with their load module names and with the name ADMASP.

Note: If an installation uses the OS LOAD function is used to dynamically load GDDM, applications that use GDDM's system programmer interface cannot use the ADMUFO to bypass parameter checking.
