The integrated translator does not support DLL mode compiles at all as it completely overrides that option. It forces certain compile options to be set that can interfere with using some of Cobol's advanced features. It still has a ways to go.

I ran it in a previous installation and had no problems. Your Application developers may not like it since it generates different source code that a CICS program compiled with the Translator. It was my application staff that couldnt adjust to the Intergrated translator.

As far as I know, there have been NO reports of "different run-time" results from the two, but there are things that using the coprocessor can do that the preprocessor can't (see the Programming Guide for details) e.g. http://publibfp.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr/BOOKS/IGY3PG40/3.1.2.2 I would, however, check you LISTINGS to make certain that all the "Options in Effect" are the same with the two methods. It is possible that one of your compiler procs has different settings and this COULD impact run-time results. <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ... > In our shop, for CICS COBOL programs, we run the preprocessor > DFHECP1$, then > the compile step IGYCRCTL. > I thought of bypassing the DFHECP1$ step by running the IGYCRCTL with > 'CICS' in > the parm. > > That was fine. > > Except, a co-worker pointed out to me that the generated object code > differs, > and, as such, is apprehensive. > > Does anyone know why that is? > > > Thanks ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html *************************** IMPORTANT NOTE***************************** The opinions expressed in this message and/or any attachments are those of the author and not necessarily those of Brown Brothers Harriman & Co., its subsidiaries and affiliates ("BBH").
