We have recently installed Enterprise COBOL for z/OS and I have been investigating the XML PARSE and XML GENERATE commands that are available in this version of the language. Whilst I have been able to use the XML PARSE command successfully,  I have not been able to get the XML GENERATE command to work, even on a very basic piece of data. I've read the Programming Guide over and over but am at a loss.  The XML-CODE (s) being returned by the command are 0175114392 (or similar) which are outside the range of documented values.
Has anybody any ideas? |

I guess more specific information would be helpful to someone. Not me, as I wouldn't begin to be able to do XML in COBOL, nor want to, and I'm not a mainframe person.
Can you show the sample data, the COBOL that calls XML GENERATE and maybe the JCL?

| I know we use it and it works OK, must be something wrong with your setup somewhere. |

This works, compiled with Enterprise COBOL 3.4.0 on z/OS 1.7.
| Code: |

Environment Division.
Data Division.
Working-Storage Section.

05 ABND-DUMP PIC 9(008) COMP-5 VALUE 1.
01 WORK-AREAS.
05 ABND-CD PIC 9(008) COMP-5 VALUE 0.
05 NB-XML-BYTES PIC 9(008) COMP-5 VALUE 0.
05 XML-CODE-OUT PIC -9(010) VALUE ZEROES.

* This structure will have XML generated for it.

* This is the final destination of the XML output.

Thanks for your replies. The problem was caused by the JCL used to run the program using the runtime library for our previous version of COBOL instead of the Enterprise version. Doh!  |
