Compiledate and Compiletime of loads

It should be nice to get the list of compile date and compiletime and version of compiler of all csects in a loadmodule. This should be implemented for the languages cobol, PL/1, LE-enabled ASM, C/C++, FORTRAN for online and batch component.
- all linkage conventions
- Host and plugin
- File Manager Base (3.10)

    Closed because of age and inability to address this at this point in time. Raise a new RFE if still required. This capability to list all the CSECTs and Compiler, compile date is there and it is possible to get the reports in XML as well today.

    This is a very nice feature, which will be very helpful to decide to use FileManager-Product.
