DEFINE Directive

The DEFINE directive defines a compiler constant.

>> DEFINE ConstantName AS ConstantValue [OVERRIDE]

Syntax:

1.	ConstantName is the name of the constant to be set.

2.	ConstantValue is the value of the constant.

General rules:

1.	The Constant is defined and set to the ConstantValue.

2.	Use the OVERRIDE clause to re-define a previously set constant.

Alternative syntax

The following equivalent syntax is supported for compatibility:

$SET CONSTANT ConstantName ConstantValue

The dollar sign must appear in the source indicator area.

Example

Define the DEBUG compiler constant set to 1:

>>DEFINE DEBUG 1        program-id. eg001.         ...
