Normally, there is no problem in running even very old C modules on
newer versions of the OS. We did this for years.
Another thing is, if you have changes in MQ, for example - that is, if you
try to run your C programs on a new release of MQ - that may or may not
work.
In this case, we sometimes even had to change the source code,
not only recompile with a newer compiler version and new libraries.
Kind regards

Hello
we have a Product on z/OS, Compiled with C++ Compiler under z/OS V1.8.
And we are running now z/OS V1.11 and soon V1.13. The Product still run's OK.
But parts of it, we have to recompile sometimes and we do this by running the
old V1.8 C++ Compiler with an old LE V1.8 SCEERUN/SCEERUN2 on the STEPLIB. We
have to use the old Compiler, because the code of the actual Compiler can not
run together with the old one.
If we want to be actual, we need to Compile everything of the Product NEW with
the new Compiler to got it run. But that's too much Work to do.
The Product use MQ and TCP/IP.
my Question:
How long will be possible, to Compile with the old (z/OS V1.8) Compiler/LE on
STEPLIB but running under an actual z/OS ?
Any experience ?
Thank you,
Patrick Vogt
