Data-conversion exit reference

For z/OS®, you must write data-conversion exits in assembler language. For other platforms, it is recommended that you use the C programming language.

To help you to create a data-conversion exit program, the following resources are supplied:
  • A skeleton source file
  • A convert characters call
  • A utility that creates a fragment of code that performs data conversion on data type structures This utility takes C input only. On z/OS, it produces assembler code.
For the procedure for writing the programs see:
