Happy 60th Birthday, Cobol

  Did later versions of COBOL ever get parameters and local variables? Obviously that implies having stack allocation and not just setting the data division size at startup...

    Parameters? We have Object Cobol already! https://supportline.microfocus.com/documentation/books/sx51/oppubb.htm https://supportline.microfocus.com/documentation/books/sx51/...

      If they had done a bit earlier (than 2003?) they would have made Java redundant :-) XML : JCL Bean : Copybook Service : COB file View/page : 3270 form Etc.
