Re: Non-L/E assembler program calling L/E Cobol program
I call LE C++ from non-LE assembler programs by first creating a Language Environment for them using IBM pre-initialization services. Check out CEEPIPI in chapter 30 of the following... https://www-01.ibm.com/servers/resourcelink/svc00100.nsf/pages/zOSV2R3sa380682/$file/ceea200_v2r3.pdf I suppose it depends on your use case and whether you need greater control of execution environment attributes, and probably other factors I'm unaware of.

This message was sent from outside your organization. I call LE C++ from non-LE assembler and Rexx with no issues. It's just like calling any other program; just like calling IEFBR14.

Others either have or will point you to the correct ways of doing what you want. You might consider replacing the Assembler program with a COBOL program because Enterprise COBOL is a lot more powerful than COBOL VS (the 1974 standard) and may well have all of the function needed. I suspect many shops may still be stuck in a COBOL VS mindset.
