In the old days, as far as I remember though I can't prove it, you used to be able to look at a load library member, check for a certain string (e.g. C2 mm/dd/yy hh:mm:ss) and establish that the module - or even modules had been compiled as COBOL II.
Wit the advent of program objects on PDSEs and Enterprise COBOL we don't appear to have that luxury. Does anyone know of any way to identify the language type of modules. We have File-AID at this site and it can identify the CSECTs within a module but it doesn't seem to be able to tell me what COBOL version was used As we prepare to establish Enterprise COBOL 5.1 as the default, I've been asked by developers if it is possible to give them a list of what programs were compiled with which compiler and given that our "load libraries" are now almost 100% PDSE it's proving tricky. Any thoughts?
