Tags: Proceedings, 2016, SHARE in San Antonio 2016

New and improved IBM recommendations and tools for migrating to COBOL V5 will be discussed!
The new COBOL compiler offers many features for programmers and applications managers; but it also takes some work to get to use it.  This session will tell you everything you need to know to get up and running with Enterprise COBOL V5.1.  We will talk about what has changed; what is better; and what you will have to change in order to use the new compiler. There are a few small source code changes; but most of the changes will be outside of your COBOL source code.  Compiler options have changed; some behaviors have changed; some new restrictions have been added; and performance has changed; come and hear all about it!-Tom M.
