Hi,
I am using File-Manager to compare a load of one module existing in two different load-libs.
The comparison level is at CSECT.
The output report shows the following
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
C New CSECT data O Old CSECT data
Name ABC1234 Name ABC1234
*Date 1 07/03/28 Date 1 05/03/21
*Date 2 07/03/28 Date 2 05/03/21
C New CSECT data O Old CSECT data
Name ABC2345 Name ABC2345
*Date 1 09/07/03 Date 1 08/07/18
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Kindly let me know ,
1. what is the difference between Date 1 and Date 2 ?
2. When Date 1 will come and when it will not ?

Thanks

IBM has File Manager manuals on their web site -- not that hard to find. It only took a few minutes to find the User's Manual and locate
Quote:
Compiler 1 The short name or number of the first compiler (if available).
Date 1 The date of the first compilation / ZAP applied (if available).
Compiler 2 A short name or the program number of the second compiler (if available).
Date 2 The date of the second compilation.
even though I have never used the product.

Perhaps you should spend more time in the File Manager manuals?

I do tried searching. May be I am looking at the wrong manual.
Will it be fine, if you can share the path of the manual ?

Hi Robert

One more thing, in the example below
Code:
 New CSECT data           O Old CSECT data
Name      ABC1234          Name          ABC1234
*Date 1   07/03/28         Date 1        05/03/21
*Date 2   07/03/28         Date 2        05/03/21


Date 1 and Date 2 are same. Do you have any idea, why they are same?


Thanks

Presumably, since they are supposed to be first and second compile dates, there's never been a second compile. Since I don't know or use File Manager, I do not know what the significance is.

OK

However, for some of the CSECT it is showing Date 1 as well as Date 2 and for some It is showing Date 1 only.

Thanks.
