This list is followed pretty closely by the team so you can ask questions about COBOL here. You can also go to the COBOL Cafe (Discussion forum section) and ask questions there.
There is an RFE on this topic and it has been accepted. There is no target date for that RFE. The issue is this: we implemented INITCHECK in the optimizer (not parse/scan.) That's because it has to do optimizer like things such as "Use/Def" tracking and it has to use aliases. So a word of warning: we plan to enable INITCHECK at OPT(0) but when when INITCHECK is running we still need to do some of these compute intensive operations so the OPT(0) compile will take longer. (Not as long as OPT(1) or OPT(2) but longer than OPT(0) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
