Chapter 4 Segmentation The segmentationmodule provides a capability to specify object program overlay requirements. Segmentation provides a facility for specifying permanent and independent segments. Segmentation also allows the intermixing of sections with different segment-numbers and allows the fixed portion of the source program to contain segments that can be overlaid. For ANS85 only: The Segmentation module is classed as an obsolete element in the ANSI'85 standard and is scheduled to be deleted from the next full revision of the ANSI Standard. For MF only: All dialects in this COBOL implementation fully support this syntax. Refer to your COBOL System Reference for details on using the FLAGSTD directive to detect all occurrences of this syntax. For XOPEN only: Although it is a part of the standard COBOL definition, this module is explicity excluded from the X/Open COBOL language definitions and should not be used in a conforming X/Open COBOL source program.
