ILE COBOL Programmer's Guide
You can compile a ILE COBOL program on an iSeries server using the current
release of the OS/400 operating system.
- Note:
- The ILE COBOL compiler and the OPM COBOL/400 compiler are separate individual
product options. The information contained in this section applies only
to the current release of the ILE COBOL compiler.
The Target Release (TGTRLS) parameter of the CRTCBLMOD and CRTBNDCBL
commands allows you to specify the release level on which you intend to use
the module object. The TGTRLS parameter has three possible
values: *CURRENT, *PRV, and target-release.
- Specify *CURRENT if the module object is to be used on the release of the
operating system currently running on your system. For example, if
V4R4M0 is running on the system, *CURRENT means you intend to use the program
on a system with V4R4M0 installed. This value is the default.
- Specify *PRV if the object is to be used on the previous release, with
modification level 0, of the operating system. For example, if V4R4M0
is running on the system, *PRV means that you intend to use the object on a
system with V4R3M0 installed. You can also use the object on a system
with any subsequent release of the operating system installed.
-
target-release allows you to specify the release level on which you
intend to use the module object. The values you can enter for this
parameter depend on the current version, release, and modification level, and
they change with each new release.
Specify the release level of the target environment in the format
VxRxMx. The object can be used on a system with the specified release
or with any subsequent release of the operating system installed.
For example, if you specify V4R2M0, the object can be used on a V4R2M0
system.
For more information about the TGTRLS parameter, see TGTRLS Parameter.
You should be aware of the following limitations:
- You can restore an object program to the current release or to a
subsequent release. You cannot restore an object program on a previous
release that is not allowed by the TGTRLS target-release.
- No product library should be in the system portion of your library
list.
