Java Typedefs

Restriction: This applies to native code only.

For convenience, copybook javatypes.cpy defines a set of COBOL data types corresponding to Java data types - you can use these as a shorthand way of declaring data items for use with Java in your COBOL programs. You can find the copybook in your %ProgramFiles(x86)%\Micro Focus\Enterprise Developer\cpylib (Windows) or $COBDIR/cpylib (UNIX) directory.

These typedefs all start with the prefix "j" and are shown in the following table:

Typedef COBOL Type
jbyte pic s99 comp-5
jshort pic s9(4) comp-5
jint pic s9(9) comp-5
jlong pic s9(18) comp-5
jboolean

JNI-TRUE is true

JNI-FALSE is false

pic 99 comp-5
jchar pic 9(4) comp-5
jfloat comp-1
jdouble comp-2
jobject pointer
jbigdecimal pic s9(19)v9(19) comp-3

Programs that use this typedef must be compiled with the directive INTLEVEL 4

jbiginteger pic s9(38) comp-3

Programs that use this typedef must be compiled with the directive INTLEVEL 4

(in javatypes.cpy)
