) what is the difference between AID and HANDLE AID?..

Answer / Vicky Jaiswal

In COBOL, an Application Identifier (AID) and a Handle AID are used for managing resources. An AID is a unique identifier assigned to an application when it starts. On the other hand, a Handle AID is a dynamic identifier that represents an instance of an object in an application's address space. The main difference between them lies in their uniqueness and persistence: AID is static and only one exists per application, while Handle AID changes dynamically for each instance of an object.
