SAS Proc Datasets - Change dataset name using macro variable -


i want change dataset names in sas using concatenated macro variables. using example code below error. syntax wrong or not possible use concatenating function in way?

code:

 %let term=201610;  %let emp='bob';   proc datasets library=work;  change testset = cat(&emp,&term);  run;

errors received:

error 22-322: syntax error, expecting 1 of following: alter, memtype, mt, mtype, protect, pw, read, write.

error 76-322: syntax error, statement ignored.

you don't need concatenate macro variables, it's find , replace text. because have quotes right happen:

 change testset = cat('bob', 201610)

but cat function not valid there. technically use %sysfunc() use cat function there's easier way.

 %let term=201610;  %let emp='bob';   proc datasets library=work;  change testset = &emp&term.;  run;quit;

note proc datasets requires quit terminate.

i'm implementing inapp billing in android app. works well, however, i'm trying decouple broadcast receiver activity manifest. suggestion in android's trivialdrive sample: // important: dynamically register broadcast messages updated purchases. // register receiver here instead of <receiver> in manifest // because call getpurchases() @ startup, therefore can ignore // broadcasts sent while app isn't running. // note: registering listener in activity bad idea, done here // because sample. regardless, receiver must registered after // iabhelper setup, before first call getpurchases(). currently there's class extends broadcastreceiver : public class iabbroadcastreceiver extends broadcastreceiver { /** * intent action receiver should filter for. */ public static final string action = "com.android.vending.billing.purchases_updated"; private final iabbroadcastlistener mlistener; public iabbroadcastreceiver(iabbroadcastlistener listener) { m...
