I'd bet $1 DFSORT is mostly PL/S or Assembler, with the performance critical areas Assembler.
Syncsort, again a guess, is mostly Assembler. |

Yeah probably IBM(for DFSORT) or SYNCSORT won't let it out.
But I appreciate your response! |

but the program will 
high level compilers usually put some signature inside the object produced
I jave seen it for PL/1, COBOL. PL/xxx
so just browse a few load modules and Your need to know will be satisfied |

Modules compiled by PL/S or PL/X internal IBM compilers leave a footprint. It seems to me most of DFSORT is straight Assembler, with a few modules compiled by PL/S or PL/X.
This is for a very ancient DFSORT from around 2005 or 2006. I suspect, if I had a current z/OS system, that this would be little changed. |
