Difference between Static Call and Dynamic Call

Postby satish.ms10 » Fri Aug 21, 2009 3:23 pm

Hi,

I have one question in PL/I. How can we defferentiate Static Call and Dynamic Call in PL/I?

How they are going to function? Pls provide detail explanation.

Thanks!

Hello and welcome to the forum,

Static calls are resolved during the link-edit. Dynamical calls are resolved at run time.

How they are going to function?
Typically, identically. . . What detail are you looking for?
Hope this helps,

Hi Dick,

How can we identify a CALL is static or dynamic in PL/I?

or

How to differentiate a CALl is static or dynamic by seeing code?

Hello,

How to differentiate a CALl is static or dynamic by seeing code?
COBOL source that calls a "literal" value is static. COBOL source that calls a variable-name value is dynamic. There is also the dynam/nodynam compiler option.

Unfortunately, i don't "speak" pl/i. . .

Heres a link to the pl/i documentation for "Dynamic loading of an external procedure":
http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/ ... lr60/6.4.7

The open book near the top-left is the table of contents. Suggest you bookmark this ;)
Hope this helps,
d.sch.

If there is a
FETCH ABCDEF;
present, the call to ABCDEF is dynamic in all other cases it's static.
