Max, Unless you can be assured that the compiler has had no PTFs applied since the modules were previously compiler, a comparison of the object is likely not going to be successful.
Are these programs written in COBOL, PL/I, or some other language? John P. Baker Chief Software Architect HFD Technologies -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of MASSIMO BIANCUCCI Sent: Monday, November 15, 2010 4:19 AM To: [email protected] Subject: R: How to discover compiler options from a csect/load module. The main reason is as simply as hard. We've got a set of source and load code. We're not sure the load are exactly related to the original source (more then 1.500 modules so I need a massive attack). The main idea is to regenerate the load from the source using the same compiler level and options and afterwards comparing the single "applications" csect. I think compilers options (not to tell the apar level of the compiler itself) are really important in order to generate a "similar" csect. Thanks a lot again.
