Imported and exported symbol table

The Imported and Exported Symbol Table is part of the Module Summary Report. This table is printed if binder options XREF and DYNAM(DLL) are specified and there are symbols to import or export.

The table shows the imported and exported symbols, whether they represent code or data, and, for imported symbols, the name of the dynamic link library from which the symbol was imported.

A sample table is shown in Figure 1. All imported symbols are listed first, followed by the exported symbols. Within each group, symbols are arranged alphabetically. There are some differences between the two groups:

The member name or z/OS UNIX file name for the IMPORT is derived from the IMPORT control statement.
The member name for EXPORT is always the same as the symbol name, and so it is omitted.
SYMBOL, DLL and MEMBER names longer than 16 bytes are abbreviated to unique 16-byte replacements that are used in this and other tables. Figure 1 shows the correspondence between the long names and their abbreviations.
SOURCE: DDNAME, SEQ, and MEMBER indicates the source file, in the same way as the Module Map. MEMBER is subject to Binder Long Symbol Abbreviation rules/processing.
