Previously I used z/VSE v3.1 with 5686-068 IBM COBOL FOR VSE/ESA 1.1.1 to create COBOL object modules that were then linked and run at other z/VSE and z/OS sites. This worked fine.
Now I am trying to create COBOL object modules on a z/OS 1.4 system with 5688-197 IBM COBOL FOR MVS & VM 1.2.2 which is producing object modules that I am unable to link on a z/VSE v3.1 system. I'm not sure if they will link on a more modern z/OS system. The link is producing an EXTRN for IGZCBSO which I am unable to resolve on the z/VSE system. I don't know if this is a case of my z/OS system being too old, or IGZCBSO not living in the VSE LE, or what. I need to produce an object module on the z/OS system that I can link on z/VSE. Most of what I've found about IGZCBSO relates to VS COBOL II migrations, but I did find this as well: "IGZCBSN is used by COBOL for MVS & VM, IGZCBSO is used by COBOL for OS390 & VM and Enterprise COBOL for z/OS." Which makes me wonder if z/VSE isn't using something different. But then my objects produced on z/VSE didn't have any trouble linking on z/OS, so I am at a loss. Thanks for any thoughts. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
