COBOL Calling System Services? ($sndjbcw)

» close window

The Question is:

 
I have a request to use the system service sys$sndjbc to submit files into
 spawned processes within COBOL programs.  The current "standard" is to CALL
 "LIB$SPAWN" USING BY DISCRIPTOR PAN_TEST.  The "new" command would be CALL
 "SYS$SNDJBC" USING ? and ther
e's the problem.
 
How do I use the SNDJBC command to accomplish what the LIB$SPAWN does.
 
The primary issue at stake is to increase the performance of the various alpha
 boxes that use this code.
 

The Answer is :

 
  Please visit the AskQ website referenced in the OpenVMS FAQ, and search
  for "COBOL Using $SNDJBCW" or similar.  You should be able to locate
  existing support database articles including:
 
    Example-COBOL Using $SNDJBCW To Enter A File In A Print Queue
