Overview:
IBM High Level Assembler (HLASM) and Toolkit Feature is a flexible development solution for all Assembler Language applications. The assembler and optional toolkit improves programmer productivity and simplifies program development and maintenance.
HLASM provides all the proven facilities found in earlier assemblers and includes many new facilities. It helps you develop programs and subroutines for functions not typically provided by other symbolic languages, such as COBOL, FORTRAN, and PL/I. High Level Assembler provides extensions to the basic assembler language, and the macro and conditional assembly language, including external function calls and built-in functions. The optional High Level Assembler Toolkit Feature is a powerful and flexible set of tools that enhances application recovery and development.
Efficient
Enhanced usability with warning-suppression option.
Flexible
Simplified tool integration with improved SYSADATA record layouts.
Versatile
Cross-system compatibility assisted by ASCII constants.
Productive
Simplified macro coding with longer macro arguments and string variables.
Features:
Changed Assembler instructions
QY-type and SY-type address constants provide resolution into long-displacement. Support for three decimal floating-point data types, increasing instruction addressability and reducing the need for additional instructions.
Unified Opcode table
OPTABLE option – The OPTABLE option is permitted on the *PROCESS statement.
Mnemonic tagging
Suffix tags for instruction mnemonics let you use identically-named macro instructions and machine instructions in the same source program.
Programming and diagnostic aids
HLASM provides assembler listing and diagnostic features to help program development and analysis of program errors.
Macro language extensions
The macro language is an extension of the assembler language. It provides a convenient way to generate a preferred sequence of assembler language statements many times in one or more programs.
Conditional assembly extensions
Flexible extensions for external function calls, built-in functions, extensions to existing instructions and SET symbol usage, system variable symbols, and data attributes.
