- name_entry
- is a special positional operand that can be used to pass a value
into the called macro definition. For a detailed description of what
form name_entry can take, see Name entry.
- sequence_symbol
- is a sequence symbol. If a sequence symbol is coded in the
name entry of a macro instruction, the value of the symbol is not passed
to the called macro definition and therefore cannot be used as a value
for substitution in the macro definition.
- operation_code
- is the symbolic operation code which identifies the macro definition
that you want the assembler to process. For more information, see
Operation entry.
- operand
- The positional operands or keyword operands that you use to pass
values into the called macro definition. For more information, see
Operand entry.
If no operands are specified in the operand field, and if the absence
of the operand entry is indicated by a comma preceded and followed by one
or more spaces, remarks are allowed.
The entries in the name, operation, and operand fields correspond to
entries in the prototype statement of the called macro definition (see
Macro instruction prototype).
