I might have said something incorrect on this topic earlier, although I
don't think it applies to John's situation. Parallel Sysplex pricing is
better than I implied previously.
If you've got Parallel Sysplex, and you only license the C/C++ compiler to
one physical machine, then you'll only be
With no business need it might be a difficult sell at any price (other than
zero) but you can possibly use GCCMVS. It runs on MVS3.8j so it should run on
z/OS as well. It might be just producing 24 bit code but being open source you
can improve it.

At one time I calculated the cost to be the same as the COBOL compiler.
We could not justified the cost of either compiler, so we route all of
compiler jobs to another data center that has all the compilers. They
charge us for both processor time and DASD, but that still only amounts
to pennies
Can anybody here tell me what the license fee is for the IBM C/C++
compiler? We had it at one time, but the last dying gasp of our previous
manager killed it in a vain attempt to keep his job (he eliminated a lot
of so-called waste to prove he was effective). I would like it back,
although to be
John,
One major factor that will influence the price is whether the C/C++
compiler is fenced to a zNALC LPAR or not. I'll sketch out for you the two
scenarios so you know the right question(s) to ask your IBM dude or
dudette.
In the usual scenario, the price depends on your total z/OS MSUs on
