Data Structure:
The *"0/122 program allo3s you to dene an area in storage and the layout of the elds,
called subelds, 3ithin the area. This area in storage is called a data structure.
4ou can use a data structure to)
Dene the same internal area multiple times using di5erent data formats
6perate on a eld and change its contents
Divide a eld into subelds 3ithout using the 768E or 768E. operation codes
Dene a data structure and its subelds in the same 3ay a record is dened
Dene multiple occurrences of a set of data
0roup non9contiguous data into contiguous internal storage locations.
In addition, there are three special data structures, each 3ith a specic purpose)
: data area data structure !identied by a ; in position 1< of the data structure
statement&
: le information data structure !referred to by the -ey3ord I%'DS on a le
description specications continuation line&
: program9status data structure !identied by an S in position 1< of the data
structure statement&.
Data structures can be program9described or externally described.
Data Structure Statement Specifications
Data structure statements are dened on the input specications and must follo3 all input
specications for records. The specications for data structure statements are)

structure, and is required for an externally described data structure, a file information data

Rules for Specifying Data Structure Statements
Remember the following when you specify data structure statements:
The data structure name must be a symbolic name 3ith a maximum of six
characters. The name can appear on only one data structure specication, cannot
be a loo- ahead eld, and can be specied any3here a character eld is allo3ed.
:ll entries for one data structure and its subelds must appear together@ they
cannot be mixed 3ith entries for other data structures.
The data structure length is determined by the rst specication in the program
that denes a length in one of the preceding 3ays. SubseAuent conBicting lengths
are incorrect. The length of a data structure is one of the follo3ing)
o The length specied in the input9eld specications if the data structure
name is an input eld
o The length specied in positions 1< through C1 of the data structure
statement
o The highest To position of a subeld 3ithin a data structure if the data
structure name is not an input eld.
: compile9time or prerun9time array cannot be used in a data area data structure or
in a multiple9occurrence data structure.
Data structures are character data and can be from 1 to DDDD characters in length.
: data structure and a subeld of a data structure cannot have the same name.

Data area data structures
'ile information data structures !I%'DS&
"rogram9status data structures
Data !rea Data Structure
: data area data structure, identied by a ; in position 1< of the data structure statement,
indicates to the *"0/122 program that it should read in and loc- the data area of the same
name at program initialiEation and should 3rite out and unloc- the same data area at the
end of the program. Data area data structures, as in all other data structures, have the
type character. : data area read into a data area data structure must also be character.
The data area and data area data structure must have the same name unless you rename
the data area 3ithin the *"0/122 program by using the +%:78:* DE'% statement.
4ou can specify the data area operations !I%, 6;T, and ;%.FG& and have the type for a
data area that is implicitly read in and 3ritten out. (efore you use a data area data
structure 3ith these operations, you must specify that data area in the result eld of the
+%:78:* DE'% statement. : data area data structure cannot be specied in the result
eld of a ":*7 operation. If you specify blan-s for the data area data structure !positions =
through 1> of the input specications line that contains a " in position 1<&, the *"0/122
program uses a local data area. To provide a name for a local data area, use the +%:78:*
DE'% operation, 3ith +.D: in factor > and the name in the result eld. If data structure
name entry is blan- then the local data area is used.
This data area either you can create using F*TDT::*: command or if not created by you
then system 3ill create it in HTE7" library at the start of Iob and 3ill delete it at the end of
the Iob.

Exception or error handling:
In any application development exception/error handling plays a very important role. The
errors can occur at any time 3hile running the application program. Therefore, you as a
programmer should be capable of handling such errors rather than allo3ing them to
abnormally end the program itself. The term exception tells about the study of various
error conditions and error handling implies detecting and correcting errors.
*"0/122 provides 'ile Information Data Structure !I%'DS&, le exception/error subroutine
!I%'S*&, program status data structure and program exception/error subroutine !+"SS*& for
exception/error handling.
I%'S* is used 3ith +"SS* is used to nd le level exception and only program level
exception are handle by "rogram Status Data Structure using +"SS*.

Jhen error code is greater than DD then user can able to use +"SS* routine. 6ther 3ise
user have to use simple subroutine to handle the exception.

The purpose of a le information data structure is to identify exception/error for a le in
the program. It must be uni6ue for each le. : le information data structure contains
predened subelds that give information about the type of exception or error that
occurred, the operation that the program 3as running 3hen the exception/error occurred
and the status of various conditions. The I%'DS data structure is specied either on the le

:bove example sho3s you ho3 to handle the le related error.
%o3 in next example see ho3 to handle the program related error.
(rogram Exception?Errors
The exception/errors that occurred during program execution time are -no3n as program
exception error. i.e. an error on a F:.. operation code, division by Eero, SAuare root of a
negative number etc. Therefore if you are doing above operations in a program itLs al3ays
a good programming practice to provide logic to handle these errors.
: program9status data structure, identied by an S in position 1< of the data structure
statement, provides program exception/error information to the program. 4ou can handle
these errors in one of follo3ing 3ays.
;se error indicator in position C69C= of those operations that allo3s such an entry. If
error occurs than the indicator sets on. 4ou can determine the action to be ta-en by
testing the indicator for on condition.
: program exception/error subroutine +"SS* can be used. This subroutine 3ill
automatically receive control 3hen a program exception /error occurs. Information
regarding the program exception/error is made available through a program status
data structure that 3ill be described in next section
If the error indicator or the program exception/error subroutine is not present than
the *"0/122 default error handler handles program exception/error.
Je use a subroutine 8>(SSR9 to handle the error, 3hen error occurs program starts
execution of this subroutine.
+"SS* (E0S*
99999999999
99999999999
99999999999
E%DS*
:bove is the syntax for subroutine.
So ho3 to implement it in our program is in the follo3ing example.
