I'm a little uncomfortable with CALLLIBS: o It diminishes auditability of the final load module products which will contain CSECTs of version unknown to the CSI. o ISTR that it can cause mass relinking in case of an irrelevant change to the content of the CALLLIB. So, I wonder why the CICS stubs must be linked with the load module rather than invoked with the LINK SVC or LOAD followed by a sequence of CALLs. I guess it's not my dog. -- gil -- StorageTek INFORMATION made POWERFUL ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
