Interpreting binder listings

This appendix contains an overview of the binder output. This output is written to SYSPRINT, SYSLOUT, or another ddname assigned to the PRINT file (using the FILES parameter) on the STARTDialog call. Except where noted, all outputs apply to both batch entry points (IEWBLINK and IEWBLDGO) and to both load modules and program objects.

Linkage editor and batch loader outputs are described in Interpreting linkage editor output and Interpreting batch loader output.

The output data is divided into a number of categories, some that always appear in the output listing and others that appear depending on the options selected. The categories are:

Header
Input Event Log
Private Section List
Program Module Map
Renamed Symbol Table
Cross-Reference Table
Imported and Exported Symbol Table
Operation Summary
Long-symbol Cross-Reference Table
