Comments:

The effect of this directive is as follows:

  • SIGN-FIXUP provides a limited emulation of the mainframe compiler option NUMPROC(NOPFD) when using the HOST-NUMCOMPARE and HOST-NUMMOVE directives. It is not possible to provide a complete emulation of NUMPROC(NOPFD) behavior.
  • NOSIGN-FIXUP provides emulation of the mainframe compiler option NUMPROC(PFD) when using the HOST-NUMCOMPARE and HOST-NUMMOVE directives.

SIGN-FIXUP is only supported for SIGN settings of ASCII, MF, EBCDIC, and IBM.
