RE: RISC to CISC

[Art Baker <Art_Baker@xxxxxxxx>]

Al,
        So what your saying is I save this library to TGTRLS V3R2 and when
the client restores it on their machine, it will covert the objects to CISC
format? 
The question now is: Do I need to recompile these objects before the SAVLIB
or just do a SAVLIB/TGTRLS V3R2 and the CISC machine will recompile
automatically?

Any object can be restored back to CISC from V3R7, as long as it was both
compiled and saved specifying TGTRLS(V3R2M0 or lower).  The objects will
reencapsulate on the restore to CISC, so keep in mind that this can be a
slow, piggish process.
