REPLACING Phrase
REPLACING Phrase
The REPLACING phrase of the COPY statement directs the compiler to replace every
occurrence of a portion of library text with a replacement portion when it copies library
text into a source program.
You can specify more than one pair of such portions for the compiler to replace when it
executes a COPY statement. The compiler searches for each original portion in the
order in which you declared them in the REPLACING phrase.
