Static Call

A call to the subprogram at the time to compilation.

Static call uses more CPU time, memory required is large.

Improves performance

Evertime a change is made in the subprogram, all the impacted programs should be re-link-edited.

Caller and called are one load module.

A static call is specified withe a CALL LITERAL, and the program is compiled with COBOL NODYNAM option.

Dynamjc Call

A call to the subprogram at the time of exectution (run time) is called Dynamic call.

Dynamic call uses less CPU time, memory required can be less.

Degrades performance.

Seperate load modules and therefore sharable by multiple callers.

Only one copy.

Caller and called programs are link edited as seperate load modules.

A dynamic call is specified using a CALL 'VARIABLE' regradless of the cobol dynam or nodynam option.

When we are doing any manipulations on files like sorting,merging,copying....etc with a file using a utility or pgm in a catalog proc we use EXEC

Code

1 Cylinder = 15 Tracks and 1 Track=192KB

aki88

• Apr 13th, 2016

The answer to 1 track = ? bytes, depends entirely on what type of DASD is being used.
If it is 3390 series DASD, then for models 1/2/3/9/, maximum data length/track = 56664 (bytes), and not 196608 bytes.

The data -123455 is stored in variable with pic clause s9(4)v99 as 12345N because - is punched over 5 and the equivalent of -5 in zoned bits is N.
