Abstract for MVS Programming: Callable Services for High-Level Languages

Purpose of this information

Callable services are for use by any program coded in C, COBOL, FORTRAN, Pascal, or PL/I. This information refers to programs written in these languages as high-level language (HLL) programs. Callable services enable HLL programs to use specific MVS™ services by issuing program CALLs.

Who should use this information

This information is for programmers who code in C, COBOL, FORTRAN, Pascal, or PL/I and want to use the callable services that MVS provides.

How to use this information

This information is one of the set of programming documents for MVS. This set describes how to write programs in assembler language or high-level languages, such as C, FORTRAN, and COBOL.
