Compaq Software Product Description ___________________________________________________________________ PRODUCT NAME: Compaq COBOL Version 2.6 for Tru64 UNIX [R] Systems SPD 51.16.08 DESCRIPTION Compaq COBOL for Tru64 UNIX Systems (formerly known as DIGITAL COBOL for DIGITAL UNIX systems) is a high-level language for business data processing that operates on Compaq's Tru64 UNIX (formerly known as DIG- ITAL UNIX) Operating System. Compaq COBOL is based upon the 1985 ANSI COBOL Standard X3.23-1985 as modified by the X.23a-1989 amendment. It is designed to be closely compatible with both Compaq COBOL for Open- VMS VAX Systems and Compaq COBOL for OpenVMS Alpha Systems, and Com- paq COBOL for Windows NT Alpha, with some limitations. Compaq COBOL adheres to the high level by the National Bureau of Stan- dards for conformance to FIPS PUB 21-3, Federal Standard COBOL. Compaq COBOL includes various Compaq extensions to COBOL, such as file sharing and the ANSI Report Writer facility, pointer data types, and enhanced CALL statement. Compaq COBOL for Tru64 UNIX Systems also in- cludes some X/OPEN features. For added flexibility and for compatibility with Compaq COBOL for Open- VMS VAX, the following Compaq extensions to COBOL are implemented in Compaq COBOL: o The DISPLAY WITH CONVERSION and ACCEPT WITH CONVERSION extensions, which convert data from internal numeric format to "ASCII display format" and "ASCII display" input characters to internal numeric formats, as appropriate. o File sharing and record locking features enable more than one user to access data at the same time. June 1999 o Conditional compilation serves to make debugging easier. o Source program terminal format recognition is supported. Compaq COBOL V2.6 for Tru64 UNIX includes the following: o Product name change to Compaq COBOL o DIGITAL COBOL Multiplatform Overview & Compatibility Guide o Math_intermediate cit4 o Math_intermediate cit3 o Include o Std v3 o New Y2K intrinsic functions (some with sliding window support) o Option for automatic DISPLAY WITH CONVERSION o Integration of GEM BL42 o Improved driver support for -shared For more release specific technical information such as feature en- hancements, bug fixes, restrictions and compatibility charts, please refer to the Compaq COBOL V2.6 Release Notes. Compaq COBOL implements several COBOL language extensions designed to make programming easier in the Tru64 UNIX environment: o Names Flag-Manipulates the case of names visible to the linker o CALL statement extensions: BY VALUE, OMITTED, and GIVING o USAGE IS POINTER-Address data type o VALUE IS REFERENCE-Compile time address evaluation o SET TO REFERENCE-Run-time address evaluation o SUCCESS/FAILURE-Class conditions Other extensions include: 2 o Thirty-one-character user names o ACCEPT AT END statement o Single-quote-delimited, non-numeric literals o Hyphen/underscore equivalence in user names o Non-numeric literal argument passing o Enhanced support for "foreign" extensions with improved diagnos- tic messages o Transarc[R] Encina[R] SFS record support for transaction process- ing applications in conjunction with ACMSxp o X/Open SCREEN SECTION o X/Open specified RETURN-CODE special register o X/Open specified ASSIGN TO syntax o X/Open file sharing and record locking features o X/Open command line and environment variable support via ACCEPT and DISPLAY o X/Open LINE SEQUENTIAL The Compaq COBOL compiler produces an object module from a source pro- gram. The compiler is capable of producing a source listing with em- bedded diagnostics indicating the line and position of a source-code error, a machine language listing, a file-name map, a data-name map, a procedure-name map, an external program name map, and a cross-reference listing. The cross-reference listing and maps may be produced in ei- ther alphabetical order or in order of declaration. The cross-reference listing distinguishes destructive references to data from read-only references. Object modules produced by the compiler can be linked with other ob- ject modules produced by many other languages, including DEC C and Dig- ital Fortran. Compaq COBOL is supported by the DIGITAL Ladebug for Tru64 UNIX Systems debugger and by DEC FUSE. 3 The Compaq COBOL product includes a COBOL compiler and the REFORMAT utility. The REFORMAT utility converts source programs from DIGITAL terminal format to ANSI-standard COBOL format and vice versa. Run-Time Library Redistribution The Compaq COBOL media kit may include updated Run-Time Library share- able objects. Compaq grants the user a nonexclusive, royalty-free, world- wide right to reproduce and distribute the executable version of the run-time libraries designated as libcob.so and libots2.so (the "RTLs") provided that the user: o Distributes the RTLs only in conjunction with and as a part of the user's software application product that is designed to operate in the Tru64 UNIX environment. o Does not use Compaq's name, logo, or trademarks to market the user's software application product. o Includes Compaq's copyright notice for Compaq COBOL on the user's product disk label and on the title page of the documentation for software application product. o Agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, and defend Compaq from and against any claims or lawsuits, including attor- ney's fees, that arise or result from the use or distribution of the software application product.
