The issue is that there's no direct ECPG for COBOL; ECPG is a C
preprocessor and can only be used as an external function. Alternatively,
you can use libpq as a wrapper, but you'll still need to compile the C code.

Hey thank you for the answer , the solution you suggest is modified the
code in the application side i want to open the ecpg like procob in oracle
and set it there without any intervention. On the code itself .

I define a data array:
