Comparison of SCLM and ISPF editors z/OS ISPF Software Configuration and Library Manager Guide and Reference SC19-3625-00 |

The SCLM edit function provides an interface to the ISPF editor. For example, you can specify a profile name and an initial macro before editing a member. With the SCLM editor, you can lock or parse a member, create or update an accounting record, and specify change or authorization codes. Recursive editing is only allowed within the data set concatenation currently being edited. Therefore, the member name to edit must be supplied as part of the edit command (see EDIT command). The parser supplied with SCLM does not recognize ISPF packed data. If the ISPF pack mode is on, the parser supplied with SCLM returns statistical values reflecting packed data. You must unpack the data before it is parsed by SCLM to obtain correct statistical values. When editing parts controlled by SCLM, it is important to use the
SCLM editor. The ISPF editor has a configuration table that supports
three levels of awareness of SCLM-controlled parts if trying to edit
SCLM-controlled parts with the ISPF editor (outside of SCLM):
ISPF uses two checks to determine if a member is SCLM-controlled:
When the configuration table has Fail Mode set, only the first condition (a directory entry indicating the member was last edited by SCLM) results in the edit request being denied. If the member is not SCLM controlled by the first condition, the second condition is applied and can result in a warning message. |
