KEEPCOMP

Maintains all COMP variables as COMP when the Oracle Pro*COBOL COMP5=yes directive is specified.

Syntax:

[NO]KEEPCOMP

Properties:

Default: NOKEEPCOMP

Dependencies:

When both KEEPCOMP and MAKESYN are specified, MAKESYN is ignored.

Comments:

A Pro*COBOL program or application compiled using KEEPCOMP does not require that COMP and COMP-5 data items be separate in the code. KEEPCOMP enables Oracle applications to run unchanged on little-endian platforms that use both COMP and COMP-5 data items.
