Please help me on this,
I am not quite sure is there a limit 32K on the linkage or 32k limit on level 01 of the linkage. Much appreciate for your help on this matter

Thanks

I found it in APPENDIX1.7 Appendix G. Compiler limit comparison
Linkage section max : 134,217,727 in size

SangNa,

The 32k limitation you are talking about is limitation to pass the data area to a subroutine from the main program.the best example would be COMMAREA in CICS

Hope this helps...

cheers

Thanks Kolusu,
Can we increase COMMAREA in CICS beyond 32K limit by some means?

Hi Sang,

No. As a matter of fact, the "preferred" limit is 24K. I haven' t heard a reason why, though.

The work around is usually TS/TD queues.
