    Modern languages have built-in support for data structures such as linked-list (singly, doubly, circular), Stacks, Queues, Trees (Binary, Red-Black, B, …), … There are many types of tree data structures. At first, basic binary trees should be supp...

    Enhance the sum() builtin function and add two siblings

    The SUM builtin function is a very useful feature of PL/I. However, unlike many other builtin functions it does not accept structures as argument.

    PL/1 Unit Tests

    We want to unit test PL/1 moduls (also internal procedures). This would be possible by adding additional code to a module with a generator I wrote. The problem by doing this is that the source code tested would be not the same than the one deploye...

    Add support of named constant arrays

    Please add support of arrays of named constant, e.g.: dcl titleOrderNumber(*) char value('Auftragsnummer' , 'No de l''ordre' , 'Numero ordine' ,'Order number' ); In cases like in the example above, the length of the longest value has to be taken. ...

    EPLI V4.3 generated code compares badly to OS PL/I V2.3 generated code

    In a very grey past, I was taught that the best way to initialize an array of structures was to use either array_of_struc(1) = '';array_of_struct(*) = array_of_struct(1); or, if this initialisation had to be done multiple times, to create a STATIC...

    Enhance GETSYSWORD to Support USERID

    Please enhance GETSYSWORD to support USERID depending on the current environment: - Under CICS, provide the ID from the user, like getting it from EXEC CICS ASSIGN USERID.- Under IMS MPP, provide the ID from the user, like reading it from the TP P...

    LOOKUP builtin function

    Lookups are usually done via do i=1 to n while(^match) ordo i = 1 to n until(match) loops. This type of processing is not efficient even (see the "Use Case" below) if subsequent matches match on a next item in a table. What is proposed is a new bu...

    new suppress prefix

    The compiler has a lot of useful informations and warnings.Some of this couldn't be eliminated at time - therefore the message list get longer and longer - the risk to overlook a new message increase.As developer I want to accept a message for a s...
