SASC/C++ Compiler Migration to XL C/C++

Below SASC/C++ functions are not available in XL C/C++ for RUV product. Could you please provide this functionality?


S No. Function/ Parameters Description
1 abort abnormally terminate execution
2 access test for the existence and access privileges of a file
3 afopen The afopen function is an augmented version of the standard I/O fopen function.
4 afread afread reads items from the stream associated with the FILE object addressed by f
until a record break is encountered.
5 atol convert a string to long
6 clrerr clear error flag and return status
7 fnm return filename
8 K_exact specifies that a matching record must match the requested key exactly (up to
keylen characters for a generic key search). If K_exact is not specified, the first
record found with a key greater than or equal to the key specified (less than or
equal to a backward search) is considered to match. K_exact must be specified for
ESDS searches.
9 K_noupdate indicates that the program does not attempt to replace or delete records located by
the search. You can override this option by a later call to kretrv.
10 kdelete delete current record from keyed file
11 kinsert insert record into keyed file
12 kreplace replace record in keyed file
13 kretrv retrieve next record from keyed file
14 loadm loadm loads an executable module named by the argument string name and stores a C
function pointer in the location pointed to by the argument fpp. If the module has been
loaded already, the pointer stored in fpp points to the previously loaded copy. If the
module name in the first argument string is prefixed with an asterisk, a private copy of
the module is loaded. Note that fpp may reference a function returning any valid type
of data.
15 memxlt translate a block of memory
16 osddinfo obtain information about a data set by Ddname
17 oslink call an OS/390 utility program
18 POST POST macro implements the functionality of the OS/390 assembler POST
macro. The ecbaddr argument is the address of the ECB to be POSTed.
19 quiet quiet suppresses library diagnostics or allows them to be produced. A nonzero
argument requests message suppression, and a 0 argument allows diagnostics to be
printed
20 strupr strupr converts lowercase alphabetic characters ('a' through 'z') in the input string str
into uppercase characters ('A' through 'Z').
21 unloadm unloadm unloads the executable module containing the function addressed by the
argument fp. If the module is no longer in use, unloadm deletes it from memory.
22 WAITM waits for one or more of a list of ECBs to be posted
23 __builtin
24 _osmi
25 _ossvc
