Re: Regarding Synon

The limits on the S/38 and beyond were mostly two-fold Jim. One was the maximum number of source lines SEU could handle (never increased and never will be with luck). The second was usually the literal tables (that name may be wrong). The changes to the ILE compilers basically removed all practical limits but if you try really, really hard ...

The number of lines allowed in the compilers have been expanded over time, not sure what the limit is now, but somewhat larger. It also might create more concise code.

I have never experienced this with Synon – Cool 2E at our shop. I wonder, is that a setting somewhere that I am not aware of, like a ‘max’ number of rows?

Just curious.

I worked at a large customer in Chicago that used AS/SET. They had

several AS/SET programs that would not compile because they exceeded the

number of source lines allowed at the time.

Heh, I think SSA had that problem when they tried to use the AS/SET

reverse engineering tool to convert RPG to AS/SET on some of the

xxx500 programs.



I heard that they had to split it into something like 5 programs in

order for it to work.



In s nutshel: They took large RPG programs, converted them to AS/SET,

which generated RPG ... and broke the compiler.
