Binding PL/I code to the IMS language interface module

IMS™ provides a language interface module (DFSLI000) which gives a common interface to IMS. This module must be bound to the program.

If you use the IMS-supplied procedures (IMSPLI or IMSPLIGO), IMS binds the language interface module to the application program. IMSPLI is a two-step procedure that compiles and binds your program. IMSPLIGO is a three-step procedure that compiles, binds, and executes your program in a DL/I batch region. For information on how to use these procedures, see IMS Version 13 System Definition.
