Directly, or via GOFF to Binder?

This (to me) seems related to the fact that PL/I still can produce "classic" load modules, while COBOL and C++ create program objects, which must reside in PDSEs. With C++ (I guess), this is due to the fact that (writable) static data can be initialized not only by static initializers (which could be implemented by CSECT formatting), but by function calls, which needs init functions called after program load or task creation. So with C++, the requirement for program objects is driven by the language definition. But I'm not sure about this. For COBOL, it is kind of strange, and as I understood, it is only driven by some sort of debugging option which only can be handled by program objects. The PL/1 compiler group, FWIW, stated that they don't plan to require program objects in the near future. By the way: NORENT C can produce load modules, too. We still use NORENT C generating load modules (without the compiler options RENT, DLL, LONGNAME). I hope that this will be supported in the future, too ... and that "normal load modules" won't go away soon (I don't think it will be possible). It would by interesting, again, what PL/X does. Maybe the new fancy stuff is only for the customers :-) Kind regards Bernd Am 06.04.2023 um 00:26 schrieb Attila Fogarasi: > Originally SCEERUN2 contained LE modules that had to be PDS/E while SCEERUN > could be PDS.
