IGNORESCHEMAERRORS

Suppresses compile-time errors resulting from missing schema objects.

Syntax:

[NO]IGNORESCHEMAERRORS

Properties:

Default:

NOIGNORESCHEMAERRORS

Dependencies

To use IGNORESCHEMAERRORS, you must also set CHECK.

Scope:

Used at compile time:	Yes
Behavior at run time:	Source file

See Scope - OpenESQL SQL Compiler Directive Options for more information.

Comments:

By setting both IGNORESCHEMAERRORS and CHECK, OpenESQL checks for SQL syntax errors without reference to the database schema. This can be helpful when planning an application migration, as you can use the COBOL compiler and OpenESQL to identify the statements that require remediation without having to first migrate the database schema. It also provides enhanced OpenESQL syntax checking during the development phase.
