Issue/Introduction

One of the most frequently requested Easytrieve Plus enhancements has been 31-bit mode support.

This allows a way to save CSA space and have as much as possible above the 16 MB line.  

Environment

Easytrieve Plus Report Generator, release 6.4
 

Resolution

Starting with Easytrieve Plus Report Generator, release 6.4, the Runtime and Compiler may now run above the line without recompiling existing Easytrieve Plus Report Generator application programs.
Easytrieve checks whether the application is 24- or 31-bit and obtains the storage it requires to run in the proper mode.

The 6.4 release offers new options to handle runtime. One very important option is the All31 field. The default setting for the ALL31 field is OFF. This setting specifies all storage below the 16 MB line.
Setting ALL31 to ON specifies Easytrieve Plus to set all storage above the line and that all called programs can handle 31-bit addresses.
