Re: how to create unsigned hexadecimal initial value -- MI400

× The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.

Try this:

DCL DD FLAG(8) AUTO BIN(4) INIT(
   H"F",
   H"FF",
   H"FFF",
   H"FFFF",
   H"FFFFF",
   H"FFFFFF',
   H"FFFFFFF",
   H"FFFFFFFF");
BRK "LOOK";
PEND;

STRDBG
ADDBKP LOOK PGMVAR(FLAG)

then breakpoint displays:

1:   15
2:   255
3:   4095
4:   65535
5:   1048575
6:   16777215
7:   268435455
8:   -1
