COBOL Compilation System
The ecobol utility provides new flags that are not supported by the cobol utility. For
details, see the Open System Services Shell and Utilities Reference Manual or the
ecobol(1) reference pages.
Table 11-1. COBOL Flag Changes Required: TNS to TNS/E
Changed TNS
cobol Utility Flag Reason for Change Action Required
-Waxcel Accelerator unnecessary
because TNS/E native
compilers generate
Itanium instructions.
Remove flag.
-Wbind eld utility used instead of
Binder for TNS/E native
programs.
Remove flag.
Some -Wbind arguments (such as for
setting object file attributes) have
corresponding ecobol or eld
flags.
Specify corresponding ecobol flags or
pass corresponding arguments to eld
using -Weld flag.
See eld(1) and ecobol(1) reference
pages for details.
-Wrunlib TNS/E native compilers
cannot specify user library.
Specify user library with a
-Weld="-libname
library " flag.
