USE DEBUGGING statement
The 1985 COBOL standard classifies the USE DEBUGGING statement as
obsolete, so you are advised not to use it even in TNS COBOL85 programs. The
NMCOBOL compiler does not recognize the USE DEBUGGING statement, and
the COBOL85 compiler no longer recognizes the names of the debug items, which
are:
°
DEBUG-CONTENTS
°
DEBUG-ITEM
°
DEBUG-LINE
°
DEBUG-NAME
°
DEBUG-SUB-1
°
DEBUG-SUB-2
°
DEBUG-SUB-3
Remove any references to these TNS libraries, which NMCOBOL cannot use and does
not need.

SEARCH directive
•
File-mnemonic clause of the SPECIAL-NAMES paragraph
