|--+------------------------------------+-----------------------|
   |             .-*NONE-----------.    |
   '-DBGENCKEY(--+-----------------+--)-'
                 '-character-value-'
 

The possible options are:

*NONE
Default setting. No encryption key is specified.
character-value
Specify the key to be used to encrypt program source that is embedded in debug views stored in the module object. The length of the key can be between 1 byte and 16 bytes. A key of length 1 byte to 15 bytes is padded to 16 bytes with blanks for the encryption. Specifying a key of length zero is the same as specifying *NONE.

If the key contains any characters which are not invariant over all code pages, it is up to the user to ensure that the target system uses the same code page as the source system, otherwise the key might not match, and decryption might fail. If the encryption key must be entered on systems with differing code pages, it is recommended that the key is made of characters which are invariant for all EBCDIC code pages.
