Examples of Using Indicators in ILE COBOL Programs

This section contains examples of ILE COBOL programs that illustrate the use of indicators in
either a record area or a separate indicator area.
All of the ILE COBOL programs do the following:
1. Determine the current date.

2. If it is the first day of the month, turn on an option indicator that causes an output field to
appear and blink.
3. Allow you to press function keys to terminate the program, or turn on response indicators
and call programs to write daily or monthly reports.

Figure 135 shows an ILE COBOL program that uses indicators in the record area but does not
use the INDICATORS phrase in any I/O statement. Figure 134 shows the associated DDS for
the file.
Figure 136 shows an ILE COBOL program that uses indicators in the record area and the
INDICATORS phrase in the I/O statements. The associated DDS for Figure 136 is Figure 134.
Figure 138 shows an ILE COBOL program that uses indicators in a separate indicator area,
defined in the WORKING-STORAGE SECTION by using the Format 2 COPY statement. Figure
137 shows the associated DDS for the file.
Figure 139 shows an ILE COBOL program that uses indicators in a separate indicator area,
defined in a table in the WORKING-STORAGE SECTION. The associated DDS for the file is the
same as Figure 137.

Record format FORMAT1 is specified.
3
Three indicators are associated with three function keys. Indicator 99 will be set on when
you press F1, and so on.
4
One field is defined for input.

5
Indicator 01 is defined to cause the associated constant field to blink if the indicator is on.
6
The function (F) key definitions are documented on the workstation display.

1
The separate indicator area attribute, SI, is not coded in the ASSIGN clause. As a result, the
indicators form part of the record area.
2
The Format 2 COPY statement defines data fields and indicators in the record area.
3
Because the file indicators form part of the record area, response and option indicators are
defined in the order in which they are used in the DDS, and the indicator numbers are
treated as documentation.
4
All indicators used by the program are defined with meaningful names in data description
entries in the WORKING-STORAGE SECTION. Indicator numbers are omitted here because
they have no effect.

5
For each indicator, a meaningful level-88 condition-name is associated with a value for that
indicator.
6
Initialize group level to zeros.
7
IN01 in the WORKING-STORAGE SECTION is set on if it is the first day of the month.
8
Indicators appropriate to the output of FORMAT1 are copied to the record area.
9
FORMAT1 is written to the workstation display with both data and indicator values in the
record area.
The INDICATORS phrase is not necessary because there is no separate indicator area and
indicator values have been set in the record area through the previous MOVE
CORRESPONDING statement.
10
FORMAT1, including both data and indicators, is read from the display.
11
The response indicators for FORMAT1 are copied from the record area to the data
description entries in the WORKING-STORAGE SECTION.
12
If F5 has been pressed, a program call is processed.

The separate indicator area attribute, SI, is specified in the ASSIGN clause.
2
The Format 2 COPY statement generates data descriptions in the record area for data fields
only. The data description entries for the indicators are not generated because a separate
indicator area has been specified for the file.
3
The Format 2 COPY statement, with the INDICATOR attribute, INDIC, defines data
description entries in the WORKING-STORAGE SECTION for all indicators used in the DDS
for the record format for the file.
4
Because the file has a separate indicator area, the indicator numbers used in the data
description entries are not treated as documentation.
5
IN01 in the separate indicator area for FORMAT1 is set on if it is the first day of the month.
6
