Select one of the two check boxes to specify how the compiler handles
DBCS-graphic data types.
- Note:
- If both PICXGRAPHIC and PICGGRAPHIC are selected, the compiler will use
PICGGRAPHIC.
- *PICXGRAPHIC
- Fixed-length graphic data types are declared as fixed-length alphanumeric
(X-type) fields, and are accessible to the program.
When the *VARCHAR option is also in use, variable-length DBCS-graphic data
types are declared as fixed-length group items, and are accessible to the
program.
- *PICGGRAPHIC
- Fixed-length graphic data types are declared as fixed-length graphic
(G-type) fields, and are accessible to the program.
When the *VARCHAR option is also in use, variable-length DBCS-graphic data
types are declared as fixed-length group items (made of a numeric field
followed by G type field), and are accessible to the ILE COBOL source
program.
- Note:
- This option is only valid for release V3R6M0 or greater of the ILE COBOL
compiler.
- *NOPICXGRAPHIC and *NOPICGGRAPHIC
- Graphic data types are ignored and are declared as FILLER fields.
