I can't speak for COBOL per-se, but many years ago I worked on medical lab software. Our product was written in PL/I (subset G, Digital Research's compiler). It was a VERY extensive system with about 2 million lines of PL/I and about 100K lines of x86 assembly (much of both it written by me--and the TSRs and instrument handlers were in C and x86 doing interrupt-driven stuff on the serial ports under DesqView/OmniView). This application was based on Btrieve's record manager and ran in a small-model DOS application (64K program, 64K data) running over Novell Netware with _very extensive_ overlaying... I am proud of what we could do... =================================== This list is hosted by DevelopMentorĀ® http://www.develop.com View archives and manage your subscription(s) at http://discuss.develop.com
