Binder Programming: What the z/OS Linkage Editor Can Do for You

Project and Program: Application Architecture Development and Integration, LE and Programming Languages

Tags: Proceedings, 2011, SHARE in Orlando 2011

In addition to normal batch, TSO and UNIX link-editing tasks, the Binder includes several sets of Application Programming Interfaces (APIs). With them you can do almost anything imaginable, including digging out useful information about a program that's already been link-edited.

We will describe the program model for both load modules and program objects and then describe how the APIs operate against that model. We'll examine several coding samples to show you how.
