## >>> `%LDSN()` macro: <<< <a name="ldsn-macro"></a> #######################
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The LDSN (Long DataSet Names) macro function
|
||||||
|
allows to use an "arbitrary" text string to name a dataset.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
---
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The idea for the macro came from the following story:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Good friend of mine, who didn't use SAS for quite some time,
|
||||||
|
told me that he lost a few hours for debugging because
|
||||||
|
he forgot that the SAS dataset name limitation is 32 bytes.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
I replied that it shouldn't be a problem to do a workaround
|
||||||
|
for this inconvenience with a macro and the `MD5()` hashing function.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
I said: *The macro should take an "arbitrary string" for a dataset
|
||||||
|
name, convert it, with help of `MD5()`, to a hash digest, and
|
||||||
|
create a dataset with an "artificial" `hex16.` formated name.*
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Starting with something like this:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~sas
|
||||||
|
data %LDSN(work. peanut butter & jelly with a hot-dog in [a box] and s*t*a*r*s (drop = sex rename=(name=first_name) where = (age in (12,13,14))) );
|
||||||
|
set sashelp.class;
|
||||||
|
run;
|
||||||
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
the macro would do:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~sas
|
||||||
|
%sysfunc(MD5(peanut butter & jelly with a hot-dog in [a box] and s*t*a*r*s), hex16.)
|
||||||
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
and (under the hood) return and execute the following code:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~sas
|
||||||
|
data work.DSN_41D599EF51FBA58_(drop = sex rename=(name=first_name) where = (age in (12,13,14))) ;
|
||||||
|
set sashelp.class;
|
||||||
|
run;
|
||||||
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Also in the next data step user should be able to do:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~sas
|
||||||
|
data my_next_data_step;
|
||||||
|
set %DSN(work. peanut butter & jelly with a hot-dog in [a box] and s*t*a*r*s);
|
||||||
|
run;
|
||||||
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
and work without the "dataset-name-length-limitation" issue.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
---
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
See examples below for the details.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The `%LDSN()` macro executes like a pure macro code.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Known "Limitations":**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- dataset name _cannot_ contain dots (`.`) since they are used as separators!
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- dataset name _cannot_ contain round brackets(`(` and `)`) since they are used as separators
|
||||||
|
(but `[]` and `{}` are allowed)!
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- dataset name _cannot_ contain unpaired quotes (`'` and `"`),
|
||||||
|
text: `a "hot-dog"` is ok, but `John's dog` is not!
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Behaviour:**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- dataset name text is *converted to upcase*
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- dataset name text *leading and trailing spaces are ignored*,
|
||||||
|
e.g. the following will give the same hash digest:
|
||||||
|
`%ldsn(work.test)`, `%ldsn( work.test)`, `%ldsn(work.test )`,
|
||||||
|
`%ldsn(work .test)`, `%ldsn(work. test)`, `%ldsn(work . test)`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- if the user want to add an extra suffix to the dataset the `%ldsn()` macro
|
||||||
|
**has** to be wrapped inside the `%unquote()` macro function.
|
||||||
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~sas
|
||||||
|
data
|
||||||
|
%unquote(%LDSN(WORK.some strange! DS name))_1
|
||||||
|
%unquote(%LDSN(WORK.some strange! DS name))_2
|
||||||
|
;
|
||||||
|
set sashelp.class;
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
if SEX="M" then output %unquote(%LDSN(WORK.some strange! DS name))_1;
|
||||||
|
else output %unquote(%LDSN(WORK.some strange! DS name))_2;
|
||||||
|
run;
|
||||||
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||||
|
The reason for this is a "bug" like behaviour of SAS tokenizer/macroprocesor.
|
||||||
|
See the following SAS-L discussion thread:
|
||||||
|
`https://listserv.uga.edu/scripts/wa-UGA.exe?A2=SAS-L;4b2bcf80.2205A&S=`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- macro calls of the form:
|
||||||
|
`data %LDSN(); run;`, `data %LDSN( ); run;`, `data %LDSN( . ); run;` or even
|
||||||
|
`data %LDSN( . (keep=x)); run;` are resolved to empty string, so the result is
|
||||||
|
equivalent to `data; run;`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

### SYNTAX: ###################################################################

The basic syntax is the following, the `<...>` means optional parameters:

|
||||||
|

|

|
|

|
The LVarNm() macro function works like the LDSN() macro function, but for variables.
|
||||||
|
Supported by LVarNmLab() macro function which allows to remember "user names" in labels.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The motivation for the macro was similar one as for the LDSN() macro.

|
text: `a "hot-dog"` is ok, but `John's dog` is not!
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Behaviour:**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- variable name text is *converted to upcase*
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- variable name text *leading and trailing spaces are ignored*,
|
||||||
|
e.g. the following will give the same hash digest:
|
||||||
|
`%LVarNm(test)`, `%LVarNm( test)`, `%LVarNm(test )`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- if the user want to add an extra suffix to the variable,
|
||||||
|
e.g. to get a numerical suffix, the `%LVarNm()` macro
|
||||||
|
**has** to be wrapped inside the `%unquote()` macro function.

array X[*] %unquote(%LVarNm(some strange! name))_0 - %unquote(%LVarNm(some strange! name))_10;
|

do i = lbound(X) to hbound(X);
|

X[i] = 2**(i-1);

put X[i]=;

end;

|
The reason for this is a "bug" like behaviour of SAS tokenizer/macroprocesor.

## >>> `%LVarNmLab()` macro: <<< <a name="lvarnmlab-macro"></a> #######################
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The LVarNmLab() macro function supports LVarNm() and allows to remember "user names" in labels.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The motivation for the macro was similar one as for the LDSN() macro.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
---
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
See examples in LVarNm() documentation for the details.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The `%LVarNmLab()` macro executes like a pure macro code.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Known "Limitations":**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- variable name _cannot_ contain unpaired quotes (`'` and `"`),
|
||||||
|
text: `a "hot-dog"` is ok, but `John's dog` is not!
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Behaviour:**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- variable name text is *converted to upcase*
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- variable name text *leading and trailing spaces are ignored*,
|
||||||
|
e.g. the following will give the same hash digest:
|
||||||
|
`%LVarNmLab(test)`, `%LVarNmLab( test)`, `%LVarNmLab(test )`.
