The short answer, you can't copy objects from a PDS/E to a PDS Load
Module Library.
The longer answer: In order to build a C++ DLL, the binder cannot build
a load module, instead it needs to build a "program object." While a
load module can exist in a PDS or a PDS/E, a program object MUST reside
During installation of some software, I received object code in two
formats (PDS & PDSE). I beleive the objects in the PDSE are C++ programs
