  ****************************************************************
  The non-OO COBOL/Java interoperability framework is a new
  feature in Enterprise COBOL 6.4. A demonstration of this feature
  was provided (the COBPROD application), with supporting
  build/run scripts and an alternative makefile. However many
  users want to know how one might approach building and running a
  typical non-OO COBOL/Java interoperable application using JCL
  exclusively. Such an example was not available until now.
  

Problem conclusion

• New sample JCL demonstrating how a non-OO COBOL/Java
  interoperable application can be built and run entirely using
  JCL is provided.
  
  The sample JCL is available in the SIGYSAMP data set of the
  compiler (see member IGYCJDMJ) and is also available in the zFS
  install directory as file
  
  demo/cobol_java_interop_sample/cobprod.jcl
  
  For more information, please refer to the following sections in
  the Enterprise COBOL for z/OS 6.4 IBM Documentation online:
  
  Enterprise COBOL for z/OS 6.4
    -> Programming Guide
      -> Compiling and debugging your program
        -> Compiling, linking, and running non-OO COBOL
           applications that interoperate with Java
          -> Sample JCL for building and running the COBPROD
             application
