Does a logical OR between the bits of two data items.

Syntax:

call "CBL_OR" using    source
                       target
              by value length

Parameters:

  Using call prototype (see Key) Picture
source cblt-x1-compx Any data item.
target cblt-x1-compx Any data item.
length cblt-os-size Numeric literal

or pic x(4) comp-5.

or

pic x(8) comp-5 (64-bit native programs only)

On Entry:

source Source data to OR into the target data.
target Target data to be ORed with the source data.
length The number of bytes of source and target to OR. Positions in target beyond this are unchanged.

The routine starts at the left-hand end of source and target and ORs the bits together, storing the result in target. The truth table for this is:
