Re: [open-cobol-list] OC issues - number 6

Bill,

 

The problem is not with EJECT itself. OC supports it with -std=mvs or -std=ibm

Program will compile if you remove the line

       OBJECT-COMPUTER.
This issue is really small so I'm not paying any attention.

Possible problems with this:

 

A) does OC claim to support EJECT and SKIP extensions yet?

 

B) If so, does OC know that the period is optional?
