Respected Gentlemen,
I was reading the documentation of Cobol for Mainframe of Unisis and I found that:
LINKAGE SECTION.
77 WVARIAVEL1 PIC X(01).
PROCEDURE DIVISION USING WVARIAVEL1
FILE-1
FILE-2.
Where:
FILE-1 and FILE-2 they are native files COBOL.
The mainframe compiler Unisys allows to pass FD of the file as argument. How does it work? You receive the "pointer" of the file. If the file be opened in the CALLER program, he will be open in the receiver too. If you records registrations or to move in the pointer of the file (to walk for front, to re-position the key), the CALLERprogram had noticed. It is the SAME file...
Does Microfocus Netexpress support that resource type? How would it use that?
Respectfully
