  • 1.  Is anyone else testing COBOL 6?  I have a specific question if anyone out there is testing.  Thanks.

    I have a program that is failing on the 'RES' option, but everything I've read says that the RES option is always on and not an issue, however, I'm getting a IGYOS4003-E error.  Any thoughts anyone?

     

    Thanks.

    Hi – here’s the full message

     

    IGYOS4003-E   Invalid option "RES" was found and discarded.

     

    From everything I’ve read, RES should be OK, so I really don’t know why I’m getting this.

     

    Thanks.

    Hi Felicity,

     

    Seems you are compiling with Enterprise COBOL, some OS/VS COBOL compiler options are not supported by Enterprise COBOL

     

    The RES or NORES option is not available. With Enterprise COBOL, the object module is always treated such that library subroutines are located dynamically at run time, instead of being link-edited with the COBOL program. This is equivalent to RES behavior in OS/VS COBOL.

     

    Please have a look to Enterprise COBOL for z/OS Migration Guide.

     

     

    Please mark question as answered if you wish I gave the correct answer.

    Thanks very much.  I’m just trying to add a library and re-compile, I haven’t even looked at what kind of COBOL I’m running and I’m so out of date with COBOL that I obviously don’t know all the options.  I really appreciate your assistance.

     

    Thanks.
