Extra 10 bytes before each record in your output files after moving to COBOL for AIX, V4.1
You may see an extra 10 bytes before each record in your output files after moving to COBOL for AIX, V4.1 This was an intentional design change that was made in V4.1 and later. The extra 10 bytes that you see are embedded metadata info for each record. This metadata info is typically used for variable length files. The suggested solution to resolve this issue is to generate a QSAM file, which should produce a byte-for-byte file similar to what you had before. Assuming you have an environment variable set...

How to set the different COBOL for AIX filesystems?
There are three ways for a user to set the filsystem when using COBOL for AIX: 1) export COBRTOPT="fs=<filesys>" . This is a global setting and will be applied to all your files and programs. eg export COBRTOPT="fs=stl" or 2) Filenames in environment variables, such as: export INFILE="<filesys>-<filename>" - it specifies which file system to use, and provides the filename for that specific file only. eg: export INFILE="stl-/home/username/inputfilename" ...

OCCURS DEPENDING ON WITH "UNBOUNDED"
Hello my friends! I have a problem with an internal table that time after time is overloaded. The amount of itens is about 1.5M. That is the genaral overview, ok?

Thank you! ... [More]
