Limits the generation of properties in ILSMARTLINKAGE classes to non-redefining elementary items.
The following COBOL program is compiled with ILSMARTLINKAGE, ILSMARTRESTRICT, ILCUTPREFIX(lnk-b-) and ILCUTPREFIX(lnk-):
program-id. BookLegacy. ... linkage section. 01 lnk-function pic x. 01 lnk-b-details. 03 lnk-b-text-details. 05 lnk-b-title pic x(50). 05 lnk-b-type pic x(20). 05 lnk-b-author pic x(50). 01 lnk-b-reprint-details redefines lnk-b-details. 03 lnk-b-invisible pic x(20). procedure division using by value lnk-function by reference lnk-b-details.
In Java, you can access the data in BookLegacy program in JVM COBOL as follows:
BookLegacy myBook = new BookLegacy(); //creates an object corresponding to the BookLegacy program Details myDetails = new Details(); //creates an instance corresponding to the group lnk-b-details . . . myDetails.setTitle("Great Expectations");
Without ILSMARTRESTRICT set, you can also access other properties, such as group items and redefining elementary items:
... myDetails.setDetails("Great Expectations Novel Dickens"); myDetails.setInvisible("can't see this"); ...
