Using the complete inventory, you can now prioritize the
conversion effort.
- Assign complexity ratings to each item in your completed inventory
and determine each program or application's resulting overall complexity
rating.
- Determine the conversion priority of each program or application.
Determining conversion priority
After you have determined the complexity rating for each program
in your inventory, you can make informed decisions about the programs
that you want to move to the new Enterprise PL/I compiler, and the order
in which you want to move them.
Consider the following when deciding on conversion priorities:
- If your application is at the limits of the storage available
below the 16-MB line, it is a prime candidate for conversion to Enterprise PL/I.
With z/OS or OS/390 architecture you can obtain virtual storage
constraint relief.
- If the program cannot run under Language Environment, you must convert it.
After you determine the priority of each program that you need
to move and the effort required to move those programs, you can
decide the order in which you want to convert your applications
and programs.
