Hi Pete,

Did something like this ages ago. The only difference was that I needed to
run the Allbase/SQL Pre-Processor before the Cobol Compiler was invoked. My
solution was to:

1) Rename COBOLII.PUB.SYS to COBOLII.COMPILER.SYS (group created by
ourselves).
2) Write a program, called it COBOLII.PUB.SYS, that would first invoke the
pre-processor and then invoke the COBOLII compiler program in the
COMPILER.SYS group.

When I upgraded from COBOLII to the CobolII/iX 85 compiler life became
easier. This compiler is invoked via a command file in the PUB.SYS group
which in turn invokes COBOL.PUB.SYS with the ANSI85 entry point. I inserted
some code at the start of the COB85XL.PUB.SYS (compile only),
COB85XLK.PUB.SYS (compile and link) and COB85XLG.PUB.SYS (compile, link and
go) command files to invoke the pre-processor prior to invoking the
compiler.

regards

Steve,

        Actually you can change the capabilities of QUAD with LinkEdit, if
you
don't have the purchased MPEX.

Thanx,
        Jon

Well, if you have MPEX, you can %ALTFILE QUAD;CAP=-PH to take PH capability
off of the program. That will keep quad from spawning any child processes,
including all the compilers.

Other than that, I don't think it will impact the operation of the editor.

Hello All,

Quick question about quad. From inside quad, you can type cobolii.... to
compile programs. This is annoying. Is there a way of blocking this
functionality or, better still, have it call a command file instead?

What I am trying to do is to help (read force) programmers to log changes in
cvs before compiling a program. I am working out some command files that
will
save file attributes and convert Cobol source files to and from bytestream
so
that this will all work.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
-Pete
