Language Environment (LE) support is enabled using the INITCALL'mfleinit' Compiler directive or the ES_LE370_SUPPORT environment variable. The method used depends on how you intend to use the support.
Enable LE support depending on your application type:
JCL
LE support is enabled by default unless the name of the program you are running begins with 'MF'. In which case, set the
INITCALL"mfleinit" Compiler directive.
Note: For UNIX environments, you must specify the INITCALL argument in upper case:
INITCALL"MFLEINIT".
CICS
For CICS applications, set the environment variable
ES_LE370_SUPPORT=Y.
Any other method
For any other method, for example, an IMS or standard COBOL program, set the
INITCALL"mfleinit" Compiler directive.
Note: For UNIX environments, you must specify the INITCALL argument in upper case:
INITCALL"MFLEINIT".
