- dynMacroArray (version 0.2)
New parameter `mcArray=` added to the `%getVars()` macro.
*Optional*, default value is blank.
1) When *null* - the macro behaves like a macro function
and returns a text string with variables list.
2) When *not null* - behaviour of the macro is altered.
In such case a macro array of selected variables, named
with `mcArray` value as a prefix, is created.
Furthermore a macro named as `mcArray` value is generated.
(see the macroArray package for the details).
When `mcArray=` parameter is active the `getVars` macro
cannot be called within the `%put` statement. Execution like:
`%put %getVars(..., mcArray=XXX);` will result with
an Explicit & Radical Refuse Of Run (aka ERROR).
**SAS Packages Framework**, version 20201101:
- In the `%generatePackage()` macro two new parameters `sasexe=` and `sascfgfile=` pointing the location of the SAS binary and the config file were added.
- The first points location of a *directory* where the SAS binary is located, if null (the default) then the `!SASROOT` is used.
- The second points location of a *file* with testing session configuration parameters, if null (the default) then no config file is pointed during the SAS invocation, if set to `DEF` then the `!SASROOT/sasv9.cfg` is used.
- Documentation updated.
Important: The default GitHub repository changed from: `master` to: `main`
