Compiling and Binding COBOL Samples

This section shows how to compile and bind the provided COBOL sample programs.

You can find the COBOL sample program source and copybooks in both the QCBLLESRC source physical file of the product library, and in IFS directory EMI_HOME/samples/cobol.

The following standard ILE COBOL Compiler commands are used:
  • CRTCBLMOD: create a COBOL module
  • CRTPGM: create a program

Example of CRTCBLMOD

ADDLIBLE TIBEMSLIB
CRTCBLMOD MODULE(samplib/SXJCMC) SRCFILE(prodlib/QCBLLESRC)
OPTION(*APOST *NOMONOPRC) LINKLIT(*PRC)

where samplib is the name of your development library.

Example of CRTPGM

CRTPGM PGM(samplib/SXJCMC)
MODULE(samplib/SXJCMC prodlib/SXJ3SIN prodlib/MF@COBOL)
BNDSRVPGM(prodlib/LIBTIBEMS) ACTGRP(*NEW)

Modules SXJ3SIN and MF@COBOL have been compiled and are provided in the product library.
