cobolpicx

A COBOLComp5 stores a COBOL pic x(n) comp-5 enabling you to treat data of this type as an object. A Cobolpicx stores a COBOL pic x(n) enabling you to treat data of this type as an object. This class provides the basic comparison operators, display mechanism and hashing methods for picx items. Its main use is to provide templates for creating collections "ofValues", and associations; CharacterArray objects are more efficient for storing and manipulating strings.
