Cobol to C

[Vicente Sanchez_3]

Hi all,

I have a Cobol program that calls to a subroutine in C.

I should be assigning bad the fields because the result is not the expected.

Can you take it a look and comment what's wrong?.

Attached are the cobol program, C program and results.

Thanks, Vicente.

Hi Vincente,

one difficulty is strings finbish with \0 in C not in Cobol. the Cobol program has to prepare its variable before passing to the C subroutine.
+ you have to add pointer definition.
