Examples

In a CLIST, copy from the shared pool to the function pool values for variables whose names are listed in variable VARLIST.

ISPEXEC VGET (&VARLIST) SHARED

In a PL/I program, VARLIST contains a list of variable names. Copy values for these variables from the shared pool to the function pool. The variable VARLIST has been made accessible to ISPF by a previous VDEFINE operation. Set the program variable BUFFER to contain:

VGET (&VARLIST) SHARED

Set program variable BUFLEN to the length of the variable BUFFER. Issue the command:

CALL ISPEXEC (BUFLEN, BUFFER);

CALL ISPLINK ('VGET    ',VARLIST,'SHARED  ');

In a CLIST, obtain the current value for the dynamic system variable LHHMMSS:

ISPEXEC VGET (LHHMMSS) SYMDEF

In a REXX exec, obtain the current values for the static symbols SYSNAME and SYSR1:

'VGET (SYSNAME SYSR1) SYMDEF'

In a REXX exec, obtain the current values for the dynamic symbols HHMMSS and LHHMMSS. Also obtain the current value for the static symbol SYSCLONE and store it in a variable named cl:

'VGET (cl hhmmss lhhmmss) SYMDEF SYMNAMES(sysclone)'
