When compiling with the DIALECT"ACU" directive, the Compiler generates intermediate code that is bit independent. By using
ccbl, you can specify 32 or 64-bit intermediate code.
When compiling for generated code you must specify 32 or 64-bit.
Visual COBOL is bit-specific and does not support cross-bit generation.
For UNIX environments
ccbl is sensitive to the current COBMODE setting. There are also the
ccbl32 and
ccbl64 commands, which generate 32 or 64-bit code respectively. This is all analogous to cob.
For Windows environments
To produce bit-specific code, use
ccbl
from either a 32-bit or 64-bit command prompt.
