Enterprise PL/I Version 3.5 and Version 3.6 programs

The following table shows various compiler options that can be used to prepare Enterprise PL/I Version 3.5 and Version 3.6 programs for use with the ADFz family of products (z/OS® Debugger, IBM® Fault Analyzer for z/OS® and IBM® Application Performance Analyzer for z/OS®). The methods suggested in the following table indicate whether the load module produced has no significant runtime overhead and therefore is suitable for a production environment.

Table 1. Examples of compiler options and source information files that are supported by ADFz products for Enterprise PL/I Version 3.5 and Version 3.6

This table has 6 columns. The fourth cell of the second row spans 3 columns. The first cell of the third row spans 2 rows. The fifth cell of the final row spans 3 columns.

Preprocess (1st stage) to expand source, In compile (2nd stage):

For Enterprise PL/I Version 3.5: TEST(ALL, SYM, NOHOOK, SEPARATE), NOPT, AGGREGATE, ATTRIBUTES (FULL), NOBLKOFF, LIST, MAP, NEST, NONUMBER, OFFSET, OPTIONS, SOURCE, STMT, XREF(FULL)

For Enterprise PL/I Version 3.6: TEST(ALL, SYM, NOHOOK, SEPARATE, SEPNAME), NOPT, AGGREGATE, ATTRIBUTES (FULL), NOBLKOFF, LIST, MAP, NEST, NONUMBER, OFFSET, OPTIONS, SOURCE, STMT, XREF(FULL)

SYSDEBUG file used by z/OS® Debugger and Fault Analyzer for z/OS®. LANGX file used by Application Performance Analyzer for z/OS® Although the module is larger than a module compiled with the NOTEST option, you can use the module in production if needed. Suggested for test. You can also use these options in a production environment if the increased load module size is not an issue.
