|         NAME: ECBTASK                                                |
|     LANGUAGE: C                                                      |
|      PURPOSE: ECBTASK, along with ECBMAIN show how to invoke an      |
|               existing C MAIN module, using SAS/C MVS multi-tasking  |
|               facilities. ECBTASK may be executed stand-alone, or    |
|               attached by ECBMAIN. The SAS/C ATTACH() function is    |
|               called from: prefix.SAMPLE(ECBMAIN), sub_attach().     |
|               Additional details on multi-tasking may be found in the|
|               SAS/C Library Reference, Third Edition, Release 6.00.  |

|      COMPILE, LINK, EXECUTE: SUBMIT prefix.SAMPLE.AUX(ECBMAINJ)      |
|               where "prefix" is the installation defined high-level- |
|               qualifier for the SAS/C product.                       |

|      EXECUTE: CALL 'your.local.load(ECBTASK)' 'parms'                |

|         LINK: CLK370 EXEC                                            |
|      EXECUTE: ECBTASK                                                |
|        NOTES: Multi-tasking is not supported in CMS, however ECBTASK |
|               may be executed as a stand-alone C MAIN program.       |
|                                                                      |
