I'm looking information on conversion tools/utilities which will take PL/1 source code and convert it to Cobol. I could probably create one myself but.

Unfortunately, in the general case, PL/I will not map to COBOL. PL/I has many language constructs that have no direct equivalent in COBOL. This is not to say that hand coding would fail, but I don't think you can find an automated system that can handle what you may find.

Also, the lack of keywords in PL/I can give simpler parsers fits. For instance, in PL/I one could write: do p=null() repeat(p=p->z.next) until(p=null()). End; which is difficult to translate to COBOL. Inkbook V9 0 2 1096 Cracked Rib more.

Another area that can cause fits in translation is the common use of ON units and the semantic rules for handling them. RE: PL/I to Cobol (Programmer) 16 Nov 03 07:59. One converting company can be found. On units can be done by using the error-handler in the language environment which gives you much more possibilities than PL/I has on it's own. What people can write and what they do write, differs a lot. In normal commercial environments like banks and insurance companies, most of the time there are no difficult constructs used for PL/I.

People want easy to understand and easy maintainable sources. Download Free Software Popol Vuh Heart Of Glass Rar Files there. Most of the time PL/I is used like COBOL. Only one on 100 programs has something special. Most of the time, in PL/I people have problems with the 32k limit, which does not exist in COBOL.
