I apologize in advance if...
1) This has already been discussed (I did not find it in the archives) 2) This is not the proper forum for this question (but IBM-Main is always a good place to start) We have a number of C programs that need to be converted from SAS to IBM. The reason for this is because SAS has decided to drop support for their C/C++ compiler, so we need to get our code onto a supported platform. When these programs were written (10+ years ago), the SAS compiler was the best one available. Now the IBM compiler has caught up, and may be even better. But it still does not make the conversion any easier. Some of this code is pretty complex, as it makes use of MVS facilities like WAIT and POST, plus much of the code jumps back and forth between C and assembler language. If any of you have been down this road before, could you please point me to some useful resources? There are plenty of IBM manuals, but I was looking for something more like a porting guide specifically for those traveling this path - something that addresses a specific SAS C extension, and describes how to do the same thing in IBM C. Also, my C coding skills are a bit rusty, and I would appreciate a forum or mailing list that provides help day-to-day coding questions, specifically related to the IBM compiler.
