%COMPSTOR (PATHNAME=SAS-data-library)

SAS-data-library: is the physical name of a SAS data library on your host system. The COMPSTOR macro uses this value to automatically assign a libref. Do not enclose SAS-data-library in quotation marks.

Note: Autocall macros are included in a library supplied by SAS Institute. This library may not be installed at your site or may be a site-specific version. If you cannot access this macro or if you want to find out if it is a site-specific version, see your SAS Software Consultant. For more information, see Chapter 9 in SAS Macro Language: Reference.

Details

The COMPSTOR macro compiles the following autocall macros in a SAS catalog named SASMACR in a permanent SAS data library. This saves the overhead of compiling these macros when they are called for the first time in a SAS session. You can use the COMPSTOR macro as an example of how to create compiled stored macros. For more information on the SAS supplied autocall macros or about using stored compiled macros, see Chapter 9 in SAS Macro Language: Reference.
