Re: COBOL FAQ

Ken,
BellSourths is rejecting email from me to you.

That site has been up and down (mostly down) for a while. I will try and
follow-up on this.

  • Re: invoking a method
    ... Okay, having actually done maintenance on compilers including written more than one, I'll state why I don't think your idea will work, at least, not in the context of Cobol. ... Now, I will admit I have not worked on anyone else's Cobol compiler so I don't know how they work, I will offer some thoughts on the subject based on how I suspect they work. ... I may be wrong on this point but considering the way Cobol reference manuals show Cobol syntax, I have a reasonable belief that this would be the way it would be done. ... But the high probability is that it would be an extreme effort to be able to implement such a thing, since I suspect that Cobol compilers tend to be keyword driven, thus allowing them to implement the "implicit call" function would require potentially a significant rewrite or even a reengineering of the parsing routines of the compiler. ...

Presumably the parser for a Cobol Compiler is going to presume some fixed syntax, i.e. a specific DIVISION having certain contexts. ...
