Language Environment-conforming COBOL

Static and dynamic calls between Enterprise COBOL for z/OS, COBOL for OS/390 & VM, COBOL for MVS & VM, COBOL/370, and VS COBOL II programs are supported as follows:

• Called programs can contain any command or facility supported by CICS® for COBOL.
• If the called program has been translated by the CICS translator, calling programs must pass the EIB and COMMAREA as the first two parameters on the CALL statement.

Enterprise COBOL for z/OS, COBOL for OS/390 & VM, COBOL for MVS & VM and COBOL/370 programs can invoke or be invoked by OS/VS COBOL programs only through CICS facilities such as EXEC CICS LINK, EXEC CICS XCTL, and EXEC CICS RETURN.
