You should, then, consider the alternative big jump: HFS instead of PDSE.
This is good advice iff the C or C++ programs (functions) involved are to be
executed under
USS. It is very bad advice if they arre instead to be executed undrer MVS
(which I suspect to be the case here since the PDS-PDSE incompatibility
problem is most unlikely to have arisen in a USS environment).
More interesting here is of course the implicit notion that UNIX is better
than MVS. My own retrograde view is of course that it is not. I use it
when I must, but it and its dialects are still radically immature,
labor-intensive, and unreliable.
