Jon,
Enough been said about the reason and the cause (and solutions)
But who dictates techniques for vendors?
While your points are okay- the "trick" to have the definitions right at the
beginning of the module (with just a J in front) is something that makes sense
for everyone. If you ever tried to calculate offset in a DOB-program (data only
base) from the start of the LTORG (or wherever the base points to) knows what I
mean.
Interesting how COBOL-ish that part is: data division
before procedure division.
Credit for the technique goes to Ed J.
Well, Ed's super sharp but I think that technique has
been around a while.
