The model value YPMTGEN determines whether constants on devices are generated as messages. You can use the Change Model Value (YCHGMDLVAL) command to change the YPMTGEN model value. If you set YPMTGEN to *MSGID, the generator generates message file descriptions for literal constants. Because generating these descriptions takes time, you may want to block the process during development by setting YPMTGEN to *OFF.
When you finish the development and system test phases, your application is ready for final testing. Then set YPMTGEN to *MSGID if you are externalizing the device text constants for National Language Support (NLS). You must then generate and compile your functions.
