COBOLIIGO
COBOLIIGO
Compiles, prepares, and executes a compatibility mode COBOLII program on the COBOL
74 compiler. COBOLII is not part of the HP 3000 Series 900 Computer System
Fundamental Operating Software and must be purchased separately. The native mode
equivalent of this command is COB74XLG.
For information on the 85 entry point, refer to the HP COBOL II/XL Reference Manual
Syntax
COBOLIIGO[ textfile] [ ,[[listfile][,[masterfile][ ,newfile]]]
[;INFO=quotedstring][ ;WKSP=workspacename]
Parameters
textfile Actual file designator of the input file from which the source program is
read. This can be any ASCII input file. Formal file designator is COBTEXT.
Default is $STDIN.
listfile Actual file designator of the file on which the program listing is written.
This can be any ASCII output file. Formal file designator is COBLIST.
Default is $STDLIST.
masterfile Actual file designator of the master file which is merged against textfile to
produce a composite source. This can be any ASCII input file. Formal file
designator is COBMAST. Default is that the master file is not read; input is
read from textfile, or from $STDIN if textfile is not specified.
newfile Actual file designator of the merged textfile and the masterfile. This can be
any ASCII output file. Formal file designator is COBNEW. Default is that no
file is written.
quotedstring A sequence of ASCII characters bounded by a pair of single quotation
marks (apostrophes) or by double quotation marks. You may use the
delimiting character as part of the string so long as it appears twice. Any
occurrence of two single or two double quotation marks in a row, is
considered part of the string, and, therefore, not the terminating delimiter.
INFO=quotedstring is used in the COBOLII programming language to pass
compiler options to a program. These options appear before the first line of
source code in the text file.
workspacename This parameter is the actual file designator of an HPToolset workspace.
The formal file designator created by the compiler is COBWKSP.
