We are in the process of going to Cobol V6.3. We are taking our current process and trying to make the updates required for 6.3.
When a program is compiled the OBJECT compile option is used - which creates a SYSLIN file. The SYSLIN files look completely different between the two versions. V4.2 .ESD .. ..@@DOPLNK........ WUS10001 .END ... .. ....15655S7100 420021354 WUS10002 .XSD .................. @@XINIT@ WUS10003 .END ... .. ....15655S7100 420021354 WUS10004 .XSD ......................WUS110 WUS10005 Etc...... V6.3 .0.............................................................................. ...............................................................-........WUS110.. .........................................Ø.......................Ø......C_CEESG0 Etc.... Then we take this file and execute through the PRELINK step. The prelink program name is EDCPRLK. This is where the problem occurs. V4.2 - produces: ======================================================================= | Writable Static Map ======================================================================= OFFSET LENGTH FILE ID INPUT NAME 0 20 00004 <xs_Make> 20 20 00004 <AuInterface_LoadVehicle> 40 20 00004 <AuInterface_LoadTrans> 60 20 00004 <AuInterface_LoadSuspension> 80 20 00004 <AuInterface_LoadPACE> Etc..... V6.3 - produces: ======================================================================== | Writable Static Map | ======================================================================== INFORMATIONAL EDC4013: No map displayed as no writable static was found. I found one mention that the pre-link step is not needed for V6.3 Then when the link step is executed the following messages are seen: V6.3 IEW2456E 9207 SYMBOL AuInterface_Create UNRESOLVED. MEMBER COULD NOT BE INCLUDED FROM THE DESIGNATED CALL LIBRARY. IEW2456E 9207 SYMBOL xs_Make UNRESOLVED. MEMBER COULD NOT BE INCLUDED FROM THE DESIGNATED CALL LIBRARY. IEW2456E 9207 SYMBOL AuInterface_LoadPolicy UNRESOLVED. MEMBER COULD NOT BE INCLUDED FROM THE DESIGNATED CALL LIBRARY. IEW2456E 9207 SYMBOL AuInterface_LoadPolicyCodes UNRESOLVED. MEMBER COULD NOT BE INCLUDED FROM THE DESIGNATED CALL LIBRARY. V4.2 - link is successful. Is there a different process for v6.3 programs. Any help would be appreciated.
