Tom Ross (IBM COBOL development) has indicated that the next version of
Enterprise COBOL will use the same backend as C/C++ and PL/I.

No. I'll go further than that.

Gill Agreed!
HFS/zFS With DFDSS should be made to honor user allocation specifications
for data set restore.
Typical work around is to reallocate and manually copy the zFS.
Last PMR with IBM on this topic just gave me the run around. So, that is why I
am asking this brain trust the question.

Sorry, what I was trying say was that Java is a slow performer and C of Z/os
outside Unix System Services is awkward based on examples I have seen and used.

John,
With what heard about the Java performance hit, it's relativity a slow
performer.
What I see of C it's ok but, the documentation, good examples are lacking.
The data types especial strings with z/os bring different than UnixI know
these languages are evolving, my comments are negative
IIRC, both C and PL/I use the same back end code generator, while COBOL
does its own thing. That may be why COBOL seems to stay behind them.

Indeed. The lack of improvements for EC12 may simply reflect where the
COBOL folks are in their release cycle -- maybe they missed the window, and
it's coming later. Or not.

Clark,
I seriously doubt COBOL is on a deathbed considering how java performs on a
z/os.
Secondly, a serious amount of banking is on legacy machines in COBOL.

Since dataset can have 16 (or 123) extents on a volume (or another
