COMP

Makes the Compiler produce very compact and efficient code for some statements involving COMP data items, by treating COMP items as COMP-X.

Syntax:

>>-.---.-.----.--COMP----------------------><
   +-/-+ +-NO-+

Parameters:

None

Properties:

Default: NOCOMP
Phase: Syntax check
$SET: Initial

Comments:

This COMP code produced by the Compiler behaves in a way that is not the ANSI standard in cases of numeric overflow. You should use this directive only if you know that your program does not lead to numeric overflow, or if you want to use the defined (but nonstandard) behavior on overflow.
