Predefined compilation variables
There are compilation variables that are defined automatically by the compiler. These compilation variables listed in this topic can be referenced in conditional compilation directives wherever a compilation variable is allowed.
Predefined compilation variable name | Description | Value |
---|---|---|
ARCH | Indicates the target architecture for which the source code is being compiled. | The value of the ARCH option that was used to compile the program: 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12. |
CICS® | Indicates whether embedded CICS statements are accepted. | B'1' if the CICS compiler option is in effect; B'0' otherwise. |
COMPILER-VRM | Indicates the version of the compiler. | An integer
in the format ![]() ![]()
|
DLL | Indicates whether the program is compiled as DLL code. | B'1' if the DLL compiler option is in effect; B'0' otherwise. |
DYNAM | Indicates whether programs invoked through the CALL literal statement will be loaded or deleted dynamically at run time. | B'1' if the DYNAM compiler option is in effect; B'0' otherwise. |
OPTIMIZE | Indicates the optimization level. | The optimization level that was used to compile the program: 0, 1 or 2. |
SQL | Indicates whether processing of embedded SQL statements is enabled. | B'1' if the SQL compiler option is in effect; B'0' otherwise. |
SQLIMS | Indicates whether processing of embedded SQLIMS statements is enabled. | B'1' if the SQLIMS compiler option is in effect; B'0' otherwise. |
THREAD | Indicates whether the program is compiled with multithread support enabled. | B'1' if the THREAD compiler option is in effect; B'0' otherwise. |
