And a follow-up question: If I have to chase control blocks, it is possible for a COBOL program to determine the CAA address without using an assembler subroutine?
If it matters, COBOL version here is currently 5.2, 6.x is coming soon.

Is it possible for a COBOL program to dynamically detect if LE option CBLQDA is active? I have reviewed the LE callable subroutines and don't see an existing service which returns that information. Do I have to chase the LE control blocks to determine this information? (CAA -> CEECAAEDB -> CEEEDBOPTCB -> CEEOCB_CBLQDA) If so, what bit determines if it is currently turned on (I don't care where it came from, just whether it is active or not)? Would that be CEEOCB_CBLQDA_ON = "X'80'"? z/OS release is 2.2 if that matters.
