  • Subject: Calling Service Programs from ILE Cobol
  • From: jp@xxxxxx (John Part)

Hi,

Hopefully some one can help me, I have written two Cobol programs, one
is a function, which I made into a Service progam, and the second I
made a program.

I created modules for both programs, the function I then used the
CRTSRVPGM, and the main progam I used CRTPGM, and entered the Service
program in as a bound service program.  When I run the main progam, it
runs fine until it calls the function.

I have tried CALL pgm, CALL LINKAGE TYPE IS PROGRAM pgm, but I keep
getting an error telling me that my main program can't find or resolve
to the function.

Can someone please help me, should I be using something other than
CALL? or is there a special version of the call command?

I have also tried creating a single program, binding in both modules
but still got the same error.

The same question would apply to a CL program, is there a special way
of calling ILE functions?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

JP
