mainframe_floating_point

Specifies whether mainframe floating-point emulation is required.

Restriction: These tunables are supported for native COBOL only.

Syntax:

>>-----set mainframe_floating_point=---.-TRUE-.-------------><
                                       +-FALSE+

Parameters:

TRUE	Mainframe floating-point emulation is required.
FALSE	Mainframe floating-point emulation is not required.

Properties:

Default:	FALSE
IDE equivalent:	None

Comments:

Specifying this tunable has the same effect as specifying the MAINFRAME_FLOATING_POINT environment variable. If both are specified, the setting of the MAINFRAME_FLOATING_POINT environment variable overrides the setting of the mainframe_floating_point tunable.
