Prelinking and link-editing under the z/OS® Shell

You can prelink and link your application under the shell by using the the OMVS prelinker option. The OMVS option causes the prelinker to change its processing of INCLUDE and LIBRARY control statements. The search library is pointed to immediately for any currently unresolved symbols. If the processing of subsequent INCLUDE or LIBRARY statements results in new or unresolved symbols, a previously encountered library will not be searched again. You may need another LIBRARY statement that points to the same library to search it again. For more information on the OMVS prelinker option, see Prelinker and linkage editor options.
