Slightly OT - How to concatenate multi line strings in DEC COBOL

by sampsa＠mac.com

Tried to compile my little program on GORVAX but it has problems with the SCREEN SECTION that works on the AXP version.. I'm thinking I must have an old compiler or something. Anyone know what the latest is? Anyone have a kit? Sampsa

Sampsa I'm trying to remember if DEC ever put out interesting applications that were written in Cobol. I'm not sure. I do remember a friend of mine who wrote an expression parser (RPN generator) in Cobol. Or maybe RPG? I'm not sure that's possible. I do remember that the first release of VAX Notes was written in PL/I and started out as an exercise in learning PL/I for the author (Len Kawell). paul

Slightly OT - How to concatenate multi line strings in DEC COBOL

by sampsa＠mac.com

I figured it out, had to do with the DELIMITED BY SIZE issue - the old buffer was overwriting the whole new one, thus nothing was ever being stored. I added a delimiter literal and it works now, code looks like this if interested (||||) is the delimiter: GetPayload. MOVE "||||" TO Payload. Move " " TO EditLine. PERFORM UNTIL EditLine = "." DISPLAY "> " WITH NO ADVANCING ACCEPT EditLine MOVE Payload TO PreviousPayload STRING PreviousPayload DELIMITED BY "||||" CRLF DELIMITED BY SIZE EditLine DELIMITED BY SIZE "||||" DELIMITED BY SIZE INTO NewPayload END-STRING MOVE NewPayload TO Payload END-PERFORM. DISPLAY "<EOT>". On 12 Sep 2012, at 16:35, Dennis Boone wrote: Nothing seems to happen, however. I assume you don't mean that literally. De

I'm trying to read multiple lines of input and concatenate them into one string, separated by CRLF's. This is the code I have: GetPayload. MOVE " " TO Payload. Move " " TO EditLine. PERFORM UNTIL EditLine = "." DISPLAY "> " WITH NO ADVANCING ACCEPT EditLine STRING Payload DELIMITED BY SIZE x"0a0d" DELIMITED BY SIZE EditLine DELIMITED BY SIZE INTO NewPayload END-STRING MOVE NewPayload TO Payload END-PERFORM. Nothing seems to happen, however. Any ideas? Sampsa

Could someone help me with a 1-minute test please?

by robert.jarratt＠ntlworld.com

I just need someone to try to SET HOST to a non-existent node in my area (area 5), eg 5.500. You should get an unreachable error, but you may timeout instead, that is the problem I am trying to diagnose. If someone does try it please let me know what happens at your end. Thanks Rob

DECserver 200/MC - Worth a Punt?
