The major z/OS programming languages (COBOL, PL/I, HLASM) allow one to write a subroutine and separately compile and link it and then call that subroutine dynamically at runtime without a whole lot of fuss. I think even VS FORTRAN programming supports this capability.
>From the reading I have done in the C language reference and runtime library >manuals, it appears to me that dynamic subroutine calls in C can only be >accomplished by setting up the separately compiled subroutine(s) in a DLL. Is that a correct reading of the facts? Or is there a simpler (non-DLL) way to set up single-procedure dynamically called subroutines in C? The target environment is z/OS batch, not CICS or web.
