#1: Calling COBOL program from PL/I - Performance... Author: vattikonda,

I am calling a COBOL program from PL/I, which is causing great deal of performace issue. The environment we have is PL/I Ver 2 Release 3 and VS COBOL II (We don't have LE)... Please advise, if there is a better way to enhance the performance.

The new COBOL program being called is intended to do numeric check. If anyone can suggest a better option within PL/I to do it, that would be great as well. We are considering creating the program in Assembler now (for numeric check routine).

Thanks,
Giri

Code:

IF VERIFY(YOUR_VARIABLE,'0123456789') > 0 THEN
CALL YOUR_NON_NUMERIC_CODE;
ELSE
do whatever you want - the variable is numeric;
