This appendix describes the conversion tools available for your assistance
during the actual conversion activity. These tools are:
- MIGR compiler option (OS/VS COBOL)
- Other programs that aid conversion
This appendix helps you to determine which, if any, of the conversion tools
to use, and understand how to use them and how to analyze the conversion tool
output to assess the extent of the remaining conversion effort.
Note: All of these conversion tools assume that the program you are converting
is a valid OS/VS COBOL,
VS COBOL II,
or IBM COBOL program;
that is, it is a program that is written according to the rules given in IBM
VS COBOL for OS/VS, VS COBOL II Application
Programming Language Reference, and COBOL for OS/390 & VM Language
Reference, with no undocumented extensions.
