Hi,
We are looking for any tool or utility to migrate Easytrieve to COBOL. If anybody has any details about this, then please let me know.
Regards,
Abhisek |

Hello,
Suggest you search the web for "easytrieve to cobol". . . There are multiple places that advertise tools or services to do this.
My experience with these (and other conversions/migrations as well) is that the product/service does the trivial conversions quite well, but the complicated/convoluted processes are not handled so well - and maybe not at all. Even if the generated replacement source works, it is typically not maintenance-friendly.
Another consideration is how Easytrieve is being used. Suggest a careful review of the code to be converted/migrated be done. It is tempting to reach for some "magic bullet", but often it is money wasted. |
