This article explains why an RTS 114 error occurs when compiling the Web Service client programs with directives like: DIALECT(ENTCOBOL) or similar.

Problem:

Compiling the Web Service client programs with directives like DIALECT(ENTCOBOL) or similar may lead to 114 errors. Why is this?

Resolution:

When using mainframe dialects some data types have an internal representation different to the default. The solution is to compile the -proxy.cbl programs with the default directives, and compile the -app.cbl main program with the required mainframe directives, taking care that the parameters past between both programs are compatible.
