I am looking for os/vs cobol messages & code manual
Basically i am geeting an error
IKF2206I-C REDEFINITION OF AN 01 IN THE FILE OR COMMUNICATION SECTION IS IMPLICIT
when i try to compile a TELON pgm for a copybook that has redefines & is declared in the FD.
If this copybook is declared as custom code in TELON then it works fine
I feel that this message is informational because of the I suffix. But compilation stops & the return code is 8 Pls help

Deepa12,

As far as I know IBM error/warning messages are prefixed by IGY for cobol. So I don't think it is an OS/VS cobol error. Did you try checking the telon manuals?

ACTUALLY WE USE ONLY ASM90 to generate the TELON macros
And then use CPXUPTSM to compile a telon or a COBOL pgm
But i have also seen that IKFCBL00 an OS/VS COBOL compiler which is in SYS3.COBVST0.VSCOLIB in my installation gives IKF messages

That's the old, old COBOL-68 product (OS/VS COBOL) which is no longer supported.

deepa12,

Unfortunately IBM does NOT host the manuals for OS/VS cobol on the web.

Later Cobol versions have a compiler option, (FLAG(W,W)) or thereabouts, that stops the return code for "I" level messages. I can't remember whether this existed for Cobol 68, but it may be worth a try.

Hi Deepa,

I came across the following link a while back. It contains old manuals for various mfrs. It's a long shot, but you MAY be able to find the one you're looking for. Good luck.

Enter this site: <http://www.bitsavers.org/pdf/Index.txt>

You'll see a list of manual names ending in .pdf
For example: ibm/series1/GA34-0021-0_series1mod5proc.pdf

When you decide on a Manual, prepend the following to the desired
manual name: http://bitsavers.org/pdf/

Then enter the result into your Browser's address window and click GO.

An example:
http://bitsavers.org/pdf/ibm/series1/GA34-0021-0_series1mod5proc.pdf

The Manual will appear in PDF format.

Alternate method:

Once you're in the site, enter the Manual name in the browser window and hit go. The browser will return the fully qualified address of bitsavers w/the manual
name appended. Then click on that link.
