Hi,

currently i am working on a Cobol migration project where we are converting OS/VS Cobol to VS COBOL II (CICS programs).

Most of our programs which are affected are having the scenario below.

Prg A ==> Link Prg B ==> Call Prg C / Link Prg C
Prg A is the main program which uses Link command to call the Program B. and Program B uses Call statement tp call Program C. If I am only changing Program B do i need to recompile the Program A as well. What will happen in case if Prg C(in either case LINK or CALL) is changed.

Any inputs in this regard will be appreciated.

In my opinion there should be no problems at all. The only possible problem could be with a static call, if the call is dynamic there should be no problems.
