CHANGE Link File Command

Provides compatibility with the IBM binder that replaces the IBM linkage editor. However, the Enterprise Developer Assembler implementation emulates the linkage editor, not the binder.
Restriction: This topic applies to Windows environments only.

Syntax:

CHANGE {oldname(newname),}...

Parameters:

oldname
The external symbol to be changed.
newname
The new name to which the external symbol is to be changed.

Comments:

You can repeat the parameters to change multiple external symbols. Continuation lines are not accepted, so use multiple CHANGE commands if you have more entries than will fit on one line.

If you want to change external symbols in the main module, use the COMPOSITE linker directive to suppress the automatic inclusion of the main module, then specify your CHANGE commands followed by an INCLUDE command for the main module.
