INTERRUPT (non-CICS)
When enabled, INTERRUPT causes attention interrupts
recognized by the host system to be recognized by Language Environment. Your operating system
will determine how you request an attention interrupt. When the request is made, control can be
given either to your application or to a debug tool.
INTERRUPT has the following suboptions :
- No (OFF) : Specifies that Language Environment does not recognize attention interrupts.
- Yes (ON) : Specifies that Language Environment recognizes attention interrupts.
Notes :
- PL/I consideration : Language Environment supports the PL/I method of polling code.
Note that the PL/I routine must be compiled with the INTERRUPT compiler option in order for the
INTERRUPT run-time option to have an effect.
- z/OS UNIX System Services consideration : The INTERRUPT option applies to the
enclave. However, only one
thread in the enclave is affected for a particular attention
interrupt.
