error compiling on cobol

Shaamil — Thu, 27 Mar 2003 14:28:24 GMT

Hi guys
I am using hp-ux 10.20 model k570 with micro focus cobol & I get this error when compiling with compj. Does anyone know what this means.

ld: (Warning) At least one PA 2.0 object file (/var/tmp/cob7751/_hp_ver_lhpcobl.o) was detected. The linked output may not run on a PA 1.x system

There are two methods of eliminating the PA2.0 message while compiling:

1. To produce optimized code use '+DAportable' on the command
line.

2. Turn off the warning in the linker with the '+vanocompat'
option set to 'ld'.

It is telling you that you have linked code on a 64-bit (PA 2.0) chip so the code will not run on a 32-bit (PA 1.x) chip.
You can get round the problem by specifying the option +DAportable on your cob command. This will produce and object that will run on PA1 or PA2 chips.

If you compile and link the code in seperate steps make sure that you specify +DAportable on both the compile and the link.
