The CICS preprocessor OPTION option enables you to specify how to handle unsupported options of CICS functions.
- OPTION=ABEND
- Requests that unsupported functions result in an abend at run time.
- OPTION=NOOP
- Requests that unsupported functions are treated as comments (that is, ignored by the preprocessor).
- OPTION=IGNORE
- Requests that unsupported functions are ignored at run time.
The default is that the CICS preprocessor treats unsupported CICS options as Compiler errors.
