OS/VS COBOL Behavior vs. Enterprise

Postby sray@gtsoftware.com » Tue Apr 20, 2010 11:39 pm

Seem to recall that one would get different behavior in this bit of code in OS/VS COBOL vs Enterprise. With Enterprise you get trailing zero in B. How about OS/VS? Anyone remember.

Select all
       IDENTIFICATION DIVISION. 
       PROGRAM-ID.    MOVETEST   
       ENVIRONMENT DIVISION.     
       DATA DIVISION.           
       WORKING-STORAGE SECTION. 
      *                         
       01 A PIC X(3) VALUE '89 '.
       01 B PIC 9(3).           
       PROCEDURE DIVISION.       
           MOVE A TO B.         
           DISPLAY B.           
           STOP RUN.

I don't see why OS/VS would do anything different from Enterprise, MVC and OI.......
