Hi,
I am a newbie when it comes to stored procs and i would like to learn
how to call a COBOL program from a stored procedure. The SP can either
be an DB2 SQL SP or an external COBOL/DB2 SP. I can use either
depending on which is more efficient.
One of the older posts ("Calling a COBOL Subroutine from COBOL/DB2
Stored Procedure" Dec 2005) suggested this is possible but I couldn't
follow the explanation and there wasn't any examples. The post also
mentioned that using an ordinary COBOL call is less resource expensive
than using an SP call so I'd like to explore this further.
Also, pardon my ignorance, but could you tell me what the ff acronyms
are:
DSNALI
DSNELI
WLM
We are on AIX 5.2 (I think) using DB2 UDB ver 7.2 and MF COBOL 4.1.
Thanks in advance.

I have no experience with Cobol SP's on Unix-platforms, but you can
find additional info here: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infoce...d/r0007176.htm

You seem to confuse Unix and mainframe (OS390 / zOS) terms.
WLM is the acronym for WorkLoadManager , the other 2 terms are names
for include-members for compiling/linking application programs using
DB2 on mainframe (for different environments: DSNALI is for the
CallAttachFacil ity, DSNELI for TSO; there are more of those, like
DSNCLI for CICS).

Time for a migration, 'cause DB2 7 is out-of-support quite some time.
Note the link given above is for version 8.
Thanks in advance.
Your welcome.

Dear all,
I have simulated the windows MULTI application with a java program calling
the SQLTP1DL proc referenced as DB2DARI application, on Linux Intel or
ZLinux. If the proc is NOT FENCED, there is no pb and the program works
fine. If either the proc is FENCED, or FENCED THREADSAFE, I get a SQL1042C,
or the instance crashes on ZLinux (V8.1 FP4).
The proc does a return(SQLZ_HOLD_PROC):
$ /opt/IBMJava2-131/bin/java sqltp1ri 1

I've created a system or external trigger on an AS/400 file a.k.a DB2 table.
(Note this is an external trigger defined with the ADDPFTRG CL command, not

a SQL stored proc, and the trigger is set to call this SP. I've posted the

external trigger is created without any errors. However, when I do...

Hi, I need to handle the return set from COBOL stored procedure from my invoking Java program. I do not know, how many rows the stored proc SQL fetches.I have declared the cursor in that proc, but i don't know how to return the rows the cursor has opened and I don't know how to handle the return set from the proc in my java code.
My main problem with that proc is that whether I can retun the result set from the proc without closing the cursor...

I have been given the task of taking a 3,200 line COBOL stored

Windows platform with a procedural SQL stored procedure. I have
fiddled with procedural SQL stored procs on UDB, but mostly
short,trivial ones. Looking for good advice, links, etc. on the best
approach to this. There doesn't seem to be the concept of subroutines
within a stored proc, so I am guessing one main...

Hi,
We are planning to use Cobol Stored procedures for doing our Data retrieval from DB2 Tables. The stored procedure(s) will be called from J2EE application via Db2 Connect.
Does the linkage restriction of 32K apply to the parameters getting passed into COBOL DB2 Stored procedures also?
Thanks,

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
