Syntax

MAPS='library-specification' | ('library-specification-1' ...'library-specification-n')

'library-specification'

specifies a physical name (enclosed in quotation marks), in the following form:

'<filetype> SFS-directory | minidisk'

where filetype specifies the SAS Maps library, and SFS-directory | minidisk is the CMS minidisk or SFS directory on which the MAPS library resides.

('library-specification-1' ...'library-specification-n')

specifies a concatenated list of MAPS libraries. Filetypes are required in each library specification.

Details

The MAPS library can be specified as a single library or as a concatenated list of libraries, which enables you to create your own map libraries and append them to the library provided with SAS. SAS searches for members throughout all libraries, following the order of the libraries in the concatenated list.

Concatenated library specifications require an explicit filetype. Without a filetype, SAS will not be able to locate individual members within the specified library.
