Starting a Compilation
list-file
is the destination to which the compiler directs its output. It must be a disk file,
terminal, magnetic tape unit, process, line printer, or spooler collector (possibly
qualified with a location name). It must already exist and meet the criteria in Listing
Creation. If list-file is unstructured, each record is 132 characters (partial
lines are space-filled on the right).
For the COBOL85 compiler, if OUT is present but list-file is omitted, no
listing is produced. If both OUT and list-file are omitted, the listing is directed
to the command interpreter OUT file (usually the home terminal).
file-name-2
is a disk file name (if list-file is a disk file) or nondisk file name (if list-
file is a terminal, magnetic tape unit, process, line printer, or spooler
collector). For syntax, see the Guardian Procedure Calls Reference Manual.
define-name
is the name of a DEFINE established in the current run-time environment.
other-option
is any other command interpreter RUN option (see the description of the RUN
command in the TACL Reference Manual).
Note. The NMCOBOL compiler listing has a significantly different format from the
COBOL85 compiler listing. The primary differences are:
•
Every diagnostic message appears with the source line that caused it.
•
Mnemonic code, if requested, immediately follows the source code from which it was
generated.
•
There is no cross-reference listing.
