PARAM Command
name-value-pair
is one of the name-value pairs recognized by the run-time routines, or a user-
defined parameter name and value:
SWITCH-nn
sets (ON) or clears (OFF) the specified switch. In the Guardian environment,
the value of nn can be a one-digit integer between 1 and 9 or a two-digit
integer between 01 and 15. In the OSS environment, the value of nn can be a
one-digit integer between 1 and 9 or a two-digit integer between 10 and 15.
(For an explanation of these switches, see SPECIAL-NAMES Paragraph. In
the absence of a PARAM SWITCH-nn ON command, SWITCH-nn is off.
DEBUG
is used only if the program was compiled with the DEBUGGING clause and
contains USE DEBUGGING sections. When set to ON, the program executes
debug code (declaratives). In the absence of a PARAM DEBUG ON command,
the debugging declaratives are not executed.
