Re: Out of sequence error in VSAM Repro.
Thanks Robert. That was my approach too. But to my surprise one of my senior told me that it was a 'space allocation' problem with VSAM. It was not an out of sequence error. I am not sure how did he identify that, perhaps based on previous experience about the Job which failed. As it was an year end...

Re: Can static call be changed into dynamic call while at runtime.
Robert - but why in the heaven we have static-calls there today? Do they really server any purpose?

Re: Can static call be changed into dynamic call while at runtime.
if a dependency ( sub-program ) is changed the main-programs depending on it must be REBUILT, if it is a full compile of everything or just a compile of the changed sub-program and a re-bind ( the term for the new linkage editor ) depends on Your change management tool setup Thanks but I've usually...

Re: Can static call be changed into dynamic call while at runtime.
Thanks Robert.
So if a sub-program is changed, are we to compile all the main programs calling it? Whether or not the change in sub-program affects the main program?

Re: Can static call be changed into dynamic call while at runtime.
Thank you Robert. It was asked me in an interview question. I am not sure even if it could have been done what would be the use of such an arrangement?
