  • What happens after you compile or assemble a program? What mysterious things
    happen between translating your source program and executing it? What is in
    an object file and an 'executable' module? What kinds of processing are done
    on them?

    This presentation will describe:

    * How compilers and assemblers create object modules, and what object modules
    contain (old 'OBJ' and new 'GOFF' formats)
    * How object modules are combined and transformed into load modules and
    Program Objects
    * What's in loadable modules, and how they are structured
    * How modules are loaded into storage
    * The functions of (and differences among) the Binder, the Linkage Editor,
    and Program Fetch and the Program Loader

    Tracks: Applications Programming, Architecture, CICS Systems Programming, IT Management, Operations Support, z/OS Systems Programming and zNextGen
