Thanks for sending this out. We will be looking at ABO soon. I'll be very interested to see your ABO results. Sam On Fri, Apr 1, 2016 at 5:09 PM, Jesse 1 Robinson wrote: > An update for anyone who cares. My motivation was to get a preview of how > real application

Re: COBOL Rookie Problem

An update for anyone who cares. My motivation was to get a preview of how real application programs might benefit from ABO. As an electric utility, we have millions of customers and millions of account records. We don't do elaborate calculations for most customers. Think what it might take to

Re: COBOL Rookie Problem

Cant answer your question, but if you want to chew some CPU, heres a cobol program that will compute prime numbers...Doesnt do any IO though. 000100 IDENTIFICATION DIVISION. 000200 PROGRAM-ID. PRIMECB2. 000300* EXAMPLE

Yes, the compiler kindly (but not very politely) informed me of that necessity. Thanks also to Sam for similar advice. . . . J.O.Skip Robinson Southern California Edison Company Electric Dragon Team Paddler SHARE MVS Program Co-Manager 323-715-0595 Mobile 626-302-7535 Office robin...@sce.com

Re: COBOL Rookie Problem

Bill, you're a genius. Made the change, now it works as expected. I forgot about the structure of PARM when passed to the program. Now I get displays +Iterate 1 times +Reading record +Reading record Tried larger values also; all look good. Thanks! . . . J.O.Skip

Re: COBOL Rookie Problem

Skip, I would need to see the invoking JCL and the COBOL definition of "iterate" in the LINKAGE SECTION to confirm my suspicion, but my first guess is that you gave the program a PARM of 1100 to do 1100 iterations, and that is what it did. Empty (even DUMMY) sequential files always open
