All: I need a sanity check on a design I am wanting to do. We have a Cobol STC running with a Assembler Operator Interface, single thread. I understand I could redo in Assembler and multi-task, redo in C or C++ and thread, but this isnt what I am looking for. Inside the STC we maintain a secondary index of data items. If the Operator issues a 'P ......' or 'C ........' we will loose the secondary index. My idea is to write a Cobol condition handler with TRAP(ON) in LE to capture the S222 and at that time read the secondary index and write to disk. I am just not sure of the steps in the Cobol. I could write the condition handler in Assembler or C I dont care. My object is not to loose this data..
Any ideas,opinions are welcome and appreciated. Scott Ford www.idmworks.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
