BPXWDYN vs PUTENV.
Hi,
Which one of these two BPXWDYN and PUTENV is good? I read about PUTENV like this:
The call using PUTENV is static. You MUST compile the program with NODYNAM compiler option. If you don't then you will have abends like S0C1. The PUTENV by itself is only a stub to the routine in SCEERUN, not a complete module. While BPXWDYN is a well written program which does not have any of the above listed problems.
Does that make BPXWDYN a better choice?

Re: BPXWDYN vs PUTENV.
using BPXWDYN rather than PUTENV should be defined by Your organization standards
/rant on
I dislike names that convey the wrong info
PUTENV hints dealing with environment variables, and MVS has nothing of that name
/rant off

Re: BPXWDYN vs PUTENV.
both do the job, it's a matter of your shop standards or if there is no standard, then your personal preference.
it's like asking which is better 6 donuts or a half dozen donuts

Re: BPXWDYN vs PUTENV.
I read most of the documentation in favour of BPXWDYN so got interested if there had been some comparisons between them and someone has a reference to that.
