In VisualAge Generator, the bind control part is typically named
programName.suffix, where the first part of the name is the
same as the VAGen program name and the suffix is BND. The VAGen /bind
generation option specifies the value for the suffix.

By default, in EGL the bind control part name must be the same name as the
program name. If this is the case you do not need to specify the bind
control build descriptor option.
If you have multiple bind control parts for a program, then you must use
different part names for the program's bind control parts. In this
case, you must specify the complete bind control part name in the bind build
descriptor option.

If the suffix is .BND, the migration tool removes the suffix when
creating the new EGL bind control part. If the suffix is anything other
than .BND, the migration changes .suffix to
_suffix because periods (.) are not valid characters in EGL
part names.

A VAGen bind control part contains the DB2 bind commands needed for binding
the DB2 DataBase Resource Module (DBRM) for a program during the preparation
process in an MVS host environment.

In EGL, a bind control part contains the bind commands needed for binding
the DBRM for a program during the build process in a ZOS host
environment.

The migration tool does the following:
- Adds additional commands at the beginning of the bind control part.
These commands are needed by the build server.
- Converts any symbolic parameters that are used within the bind control
part to the corresponding EGL replacement symbolic parameter.
- Uses the same indentation as in the VAGen part.
