Referring to substrings of data items Using national data (Unicode) in COBOL Related references Reference modification(Enterprise COBOL for z/OS® Language Reference)
In this example, u1(3:6) represents 'é, Olé', which is 8 bytes long. After the move, the 8-byte substring represented by the reference modification is replaced with 'abcdef' which is only 6 bytes long in UTF-8. This means that the remaining characters ', Olé' in the underlying ...
Like RAW data, GRAPHIC fields are stored without modification in whichever column you specify. The syntax for this datatype is: For GRAPHIC and GRAPHIC EXTERNAL, specifying POSITION(start:end) gives the exact location of the field in the logical record. If you specify the length after the ...
$appname.psbconfiguration file, and must be specified correctly in AIB mask, the name (label) of each alternate PCB must be unique in a single PSB (i.e., in a single$appname.psbfile). The name of DB PCB must be configured with "label=$appname.psb...
The optimization doesn't account for the PIC X(1) parameter idiom where the X(1) is used as a placeholder for an actually much longer parameter accessed through reference modification exceeding the declared length. Local fix Problem summary *** * USERS AFFECTED: Users of Enterprise COBOL V5....
Size: Displays the size of the selected file in megabytes, kilobytes, and bytes. Get Info: Displays information about the selected file such as its modification date, type, and size. Search: Performs a normal or regular expression search on the selected file and displays the results as the ...
This means that the overlay works “as expected”, in that a modification to one of the variables will affect the value of the other.More generally, GNAT interprets this recommendation conservatively for address clauses: in the cases other than overlays, it considers that the object is ...
Chapter 8. Specifying dynamic job descriptor entries (DJDEs): The purpose and benefits of using dynamic job descriptor entries, page and record oriented DJDEs, parameters, application of DJDEs, DJDE operator information pages, job parameter modification restrictions, duplex printing with DJDEs, ...
If the types have the same Size (more accurately the same Value_Size), then the effect is simply to transfer the bits from the source to the target type without any modification. This usage is well defined, and for simple types whose representation is typically the same across all implementa...
In some cases, the rehosting process requires very few changes to the application. For example, most COBOL programs can simply be recompiled. The amount of modification that is required will depend on the application. A relatively simple COBOL application that targets DB2 will require ve...
