Some years ago, I had to make available a library which does
some SSL coding and encoding to PL/1 callers, and that was a little
complicated, because the library was coded in C - which was no problem -
but it was compiled and linked using the high performance linkage option -
I believe it's called XPLINK - which is not compatible with standard linkage conventions, and so I had to find a way to bring together the standard linkage PL/1 modules with the XPLINK C library. In fact, it was successful after using
an intermediate module which was callable from PL/1 using standard linkage
and called the library using XPLINK - of course, all calls had to be dynamic calls,
no static linkage.

When I was finished with that, I observed that I additionally had to specify POSIX(ON) on the jobs which called that modules - but I don't recall if it was due to the library which maybe required POSIX or if it was due to the communication
between the XPLINK and non-XPLINK modules. Anyway, we specified POSIX(ON)
on the LE-Parms of the jobs where it was needed, and it worked. The PL/1 modules
etc. had no problem with that.

Kind regards

Juergen,

I know C and C++ that use threads ....pthread.h requires posix(on). I know 
there are other functions that require it

Scott,

we are running a C++ library (libACE) and it requires POSIX(ON). Our admins 
don't like it, but won't say exactly, why.
So I checked the IBM docs, but did not find anything, except that some C 
runtime library functions need it.
