ILE Programming › Compiling RPGIV Source › Option T

Option T

The T option toggles between PGM (*PGM) and MOD (*MODULE) as the object type created when the source is generated and compiled. This option is available only for a target HLL that is ILE compatible, like RPGIV. The current object type is shown at the left of the subfile line. During generation, the change is limited to the compiler overrides in the source (the Z* lines). Here are more details about the compile options:

• PGM—The IBM Create Bound RPG Program command (CRTBNDRPG) compiles the generated source into a program object (*PGM). The command creates a temporary module, binds that module into a program, and then deletes the temporary module.

  The defaults for this command are in the *CRTBNDRPG message in the *Messages file:

CRTBNDRPG PGM(&2/&1) SRCFILE(&3/QRPGLESRC) DFTACTGRP(*NO) BNDDIR(&YBNDDIR) DBGVIEW(*SOURCE) CVTOPT(*DATETIME) ACTGRP(*CALLER) OPTIMIZE(*BASIC)

For details about the BNDDIR parameter value, see the section The

• MOD—The IBM Create RPG Module command (CRTRPGMOD) compiles the generated source into a module object (*MODULE). You must then bind that module into an ILE program, possibly with other modules.

  The defaults for this command are in the *CRTRPGMOD message in the *Messages file:

CRTRPGMOD MODULE(&2/&1) SRCFILE(&3/QRPGLESRC) DBGVIEW(*SOURCE) CVTOPT(*DATETIME)
