MOVE-LEN-CHECK

Causes the Compiler to check source and target lengths for alphanumeric MOVE operations, and produces a warning message if they are different.

Syntax:

>>-.---.------.-MOVE-LEN-CHECK--.---------------.--.---><
   +-/-+      |                 +--"parameter"--+  |     
              +-NOMOVE-LEN-CHECK-------------------+

Parameters:

Can be one of the following:

ALL: A warning message (COBCH0166) is produced if the source and target lengths are different. The same behavior is produced if you do not specify a parameter.
TRUNC: A warning message (COBCH1247) is produced when the source length is greater than the target length.

Properties:

Default:	NOMOVE-LEN-CHECK
Phase:	Syntax check
$SET:	Any

Comments:

This check is only performed for any operations that include a reference modified source or target item if the length specified is a literal value.

The warning messages produced by enabling this directive are only visible if WARNINGS"2" or WARNINGS"3" is also enabled.
