If you have a look at the Language Enrvironment documentation you'll get part of your answer. Or google.
I'd take a wild guess for the second part: compile it; link it; exec pgm=it.
I do suspect you'll be able to find a manual through google. Make that a wide selection of manuals from IBM, you can sort out what is and is not relevant to your requirement. They will included sample code, sample JCL etc. |

Hello,
If your environment permits use of C, there should already be compile jcl available on your system. Use the standard compile jcl (and do not make up your own). Once compiled/linked, submit jcl to run the program. |

The usual way.
All host programs, no matter what language they are written in, compile to the same System z machine language (unless a Java-style pseudo-compile is actually being done); it does not matter if the source for FOO is COBOL, PL/I, C, FORTRAN, Ada, or RPG II, the load module is invoked in the same way, via JCL in batch, or CLIST  or Rexx in TSO (foreground or background).
If you seeking a method of compiling a C program, then, as Mr. Scherrer says, you should use the site-mandated procedures and inquire of your site support or your senpai as to uncertainties. If there are no local procedures for compiling C, that is a strong hint that doing so can lead undesirable consequences, up to and including termination. |
