Development and Management Changes
The nld, ld, or eld utility does not support the Binder product’s SELECT
SEARCH behavior. You can usually achieve similar results with the nld, ld, or
eld utility by using archive files (files created by the ar utility).
Because of this difference between Binder and the nld, ld, or eld utility, you
might need to change the way you specify files in CONSULT and SEARCH
directives.
More information:
•
Embedding SQL/MP statements in user libraries
In the TNS environment, user libraries can contain embedded SQL/MP statements;
in the native environment, they cannot.
•
Cross-reference listing
The COBOL85 compiler can produce a cross-reference listing (see CROSSREF
and NOCROSSREF), but the NMCOBOL and ECOBOL compilers cannot. If you
need a cross-reference listing for a native HP COBOL program, use the
appropriate utility from the table in CODE and NOCODE directives with the
XREFPROC flag.
