SOURCE-COMPUTER Paragraph

The optional SOURCE-COMPUTER paragraph names the computer system on which

the program is compiled and can specify that debugging lines be compiled.

name

is any sequence of ASCII characters except WITH, DEBUGGING, or MODE. It

names the computer system on which the program is compiled.

DEBUGGING MODE

puts any source line that has D or d in its indicator field into the object program.

The process executes USE DEBUGGING sections only if the PARAM DEBUG ON

command is active in the command interpreter environment. The process executes

debugging lines whether the PARAM DEBUG ON command is active or not.

Note. The COBOL85 compiler also supports USE DEBUGGING declaratives, under the

control of the DEBUGGING MODE phrase. The 1985 COBOL standard classifies USE

DEBUGGING as obsolete, so you are advised not to use it The ECOBOL compiler does not

recognize it.
