COBOL considerations

DFHELII is compatible with the DFHECI stub provided for COBOL programs. Although DFHECI is still supported under Language Environment, DFHELII offers some advantages. Whereas the old COBOL stub had to be link-edited at the top of your application, DFHELII can be linked anywhere in the application. You also have the capability of linking ILC applications with a single stub rather than with multiple stubs.
