Problem:

Why are the COPYLIB members imported at all.  The copylib members imported in this generation are copy members that are brought in with a COBOL COPY statement, so the precompiler shouldn't have to import them at all.  Do I have some option selected that is causing this to happen?

Resolution:

The COPYLIB members are imported to allow AMB to do analysis options for 'where used' analysis. This is optional in AMB and the import of the copylib members does increase the time for downloading in DGS. This scan can be stopped by providing a parm in the DGS mainframe JCL.
