Trying compile in OpenServer 5.0.7 with cobol compiler from 5.0.2

[d***@gmail.com]

Hi,

I have an application that runs in SCO OpenServer 5.0.2.
It compiles with MF Cobol and static linked with 'C' routines.
Now I need to compile it with OpenServer 5.0.7

I installed development package for 5.0.7 and also installed MF Cobol
compiler 4 for openserver 5.0.2.

It compiles ok, but it procude a lot of undefined symbols at linked.

This is are the undefined symbol list:

_res_gethostbyname /usr/tmp/cob7912/ldtab.o
_res_gethostbyaddr /usr/tmp/cob7912/ldtab.o
_res_getnetbyaddr /usr/tmp/cob7912/ldtab.o
_res_getnetbyname /usr/tmp/cob7912/ldtab.o
_res_setdborder /usr/tmp/cob7912/ldtab.o
_res_close /usr/tmp/cob7912/ldtab.o
v1prot_dofirst /usr/tmp/cob7912/ldtab.o
v1prot_donext /usr/tmp/cob7912/ldtab.o
_nis_gethostbyaddr /usr/tmp/cob7912/ldtab.o
_nis_gethostbyname /usr/tmp/cob7912/ldtab.o
_nis_getnetbyaddr /usr/tmp/cob7912/ldtab.o
_nis_getnetbyname /usr/tmp/cob7912/ldtab.o
p_cdname /usr/tmp/cob7912/ldtab.o
p_fqname /usr/tmp/cob7912/ldtab.o
p_rr /usr/tmp/cob7912/ldtab.o
_stdtryunlock /usr/tmp/cob7912/ldtab.o
_stdinitlock /usr/tmp/cob7912/ldtab.o
_dll_bss_bugfix /usr/tmp/cob7912/ldtab.o
_yprequest_arms /usr/tmp/cob7912/ldtab.o
ypbind_resp_arms /usr/tmp/cob7912/ldtab.o
BYADDR /usr/tmp/cob7912/ldtab.o
_net_stayopen /usr/tmp/cob7912/ldtab.o
_res_resultcodes /usr/tmp/cob7912/ldtab.o

I couldn't found any docs about 5.0.2 to 5.0.7 changes that could
explain this.
It seems that the old compiler is referencing symbols that are no
longer valid in 5.0.7 environment.
Any of you know if the changes in the libraries interfaces are
documented in some public place?
I was thinking of doing wrapper routines in order to compile this but
as I said I could found the right docs.

Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

I think most of these require the ``-lsocket'' option when linking.
