OpenESQL Error: You must execute your application using the threaded run-time

Problem:

When executing or debugging an OpenESQL application, the following error is returned:

OpenESQL Error: You must execute your application using the threaded COBOL run-time.

Resolution:

The ODBC driver manager is typically linked with the threaded C run-time. On some flavors of UNIX, such as HP/UX PA-RISC and HP/UX Itanium, if you attempt to execute an application with the non-threaded run-time, which attempts to load a module requiring the threaded run-time, you will receive an Operating System loader error.

OpenESQL applications on UNIX should be built and executed for use with the threaded COBOL run-time, for example :

cob -t myapp.cbl

cobrun_t myapp

or, to debug the application :

anim_t myapp
