Bart Jablonski	7a7f674acf	SAS Packages Framework, version `20241027` SAS Packages Framework, version `20241027` - new utility macro added (`%splitCodeForPackage()`) - documentation and workshop materials updated	2024-10-28 10:05:28 +01:00
Bart Jablonski	c667bc6b25	SAS Packages Framework, version `20241014` #SAS Packages Framework, version `20241014` ## Changes --- The [%generatePackage()]{https://github.com/yabwon/SAS_PACKAGES/blob/main/SPF/SPFinit.md#generatepackage} macro accepts two new code types: - `DS2PCK` for Proc DS2 packages, and - `DS2THR` for Proc DS2 threads. Those two new types allow to add `PROC DS2` threads and packages to a SAS package. --- The [%loadPackage()]{https://github.com/yabwon/SAS_PACKAGES/blob/main/SPF/SPFinit.md#loadpackage} macro has new parameter: - `DS2force` - when set to `1` an existing data set named the same as thread or package is overwritten by DS2 file. While loading a package that contains `PRCO DS2` code, by default, if there already exist a SAS data set with the same name (which is not a DS2 thread or package file) a warning is issued in the log and the thread/package data set is not generated. To force overwrite, set the `DS2force=` parameter of the `%loadPackage()` macro to 1. --- Minor updates and fixes: - Proc `sql` "drop table" replaced with `fedsqsl`'s for data sets deletion. - Proc `iml`, `fcmp`, and `proto` code blocks end with `quit;` statement. --- [Documentation]{https://github.com/yabwon/SAS_PACKAGES/tree/main/SPF/Documentation} and [Hands-on-Workshops materials]{https://github.com/yabwon/HoW-SASPackages} updated. ---	2024-10-14 21:38:08 +02:00

Bart Jablonski	45127a057e	SAS Packages Framework, version `20240927` ## SAS Packages Framework, version `20240927` --- ### Changes - Aesthetic changes in log when running the `%installPackage()` macro, notes about successful/failed installation. - New parameter `SFRCVN` added to the `%installPackage()` macro, `SFRCVN` provides a name for a macro variable to store value of the success-failure return code of the installation process. Return value has the following form: `<number of successes>.<number of failures>` The macro variable is created as a global macro variable. - Documentation updated. ---	2024-09-27 11:25:33 +02:00
