3190.1 | DIGITAL UNIX 3.2c versus 3.2d | PACKED::BRAFFITT | | Tue Jan 28 1997 16:35 | 20 |

DEC COBOL V2.4 is shipping now from the SSB. We did test DEC COBOL
V2.4 against a range of DIGITAL UNIX systems from 3.0 through 4.0
including several variants of 3.2. The DEC COBOL V2.3 testing was
concentrated on DIGITAL UNIX 2.0 and 3.0 with more limited testing of
3.x variants available at the time V2.3 shipped.
The closest environment I could find to 3.2c where we are doing regular
testing today (with our latest DEC COBOL 2.4 build) is with 3.2d where
we have
/usr/lib/cmplrs/cc/crt0.o:
$RCSfile: crt0.s,v $ $Revision: 1.1.24.3 $ (DEC) $Date: 1995/03/14 16:57:40 $
-r--r--r-- 1 bin bin 3264 Jul 24 1995 /usr/lib/cmplrs/cc/crt0.o

3190.2 | I'll take a look if you like... | GEMGRP::MONTELEONE | | Tue Jan 28 1997 16:44 | 6 |

If you provide me with a pointer to the .o file, I will investigate further.

3190.3 | saw this once | BSS::E_VAETH | | Tue Jan 28 1997 16:54 | 12 |
| I saw this once. The problem was the the customer had an old ld image
in /usr/lib/cmplrs/cc
> ls -l /usr/lib/cmplrs/cc/ld -r-xr-xr-x 1 bin
bin 696320 Feb 3 1995 /usr/lib/cmplrs/cc/ld
You might verify that the version of ld that you have is the right one
for the version of Digital UNIX you are running.

| I agree with .3 - this sounds like an old linker on the system.

3190.5 | thanks,it was the linker! | ICS::KUHN | | Wed Jan 29 1997 07:05 | 5 |
| Thanks,
It was a bad linker. I copied the linker from the other system,
and it worked fine.
Thanks again!
