Abstract
A call to an external interface to execute a target callee program associated with a first addressing mode in a secondary runtime environment (RTE) is received from a caller program associated with a second addressing mode running in a primary RTE. An address of a share area (SA) storing existing dynamic link object information in the primary RTE in storage is passed to the secondary RTE. The SA is accessible by both the caller program and the target callee program. In response to a request to load a dynamic link object by an initiating program during execution of the target callee program in the secondary RTE, an entry address of the dynamic link object is retrieved in the SA. The dynamic link object is loaded based on the retrieved entry address of the dynamic link object.
