EXECOPS | NOEXECOPS (C only)

EXECOPS specifies if you can enter runtime options on the command line.

Restriction: This option does not apply to non-C languages and can be specified only with the C #pragma runopts directive. You cannot set this option at the system level, region level, or in the CEEBXITA assembler user exit interface.

The default value for non-CICS applications is EXECOPS.

This option is ignored under CICS®.

The default value for AMODE 64 applications is EXECOPS.


Syntax

   .-EXECOPS---.   
>>-+-NOEXECOPS-+-----------------------------------------------><

EXECOPS: Specifies that you can enter runtime options on the command line. Language Environment parses the argument string to separate runtime options from application arguments. The runtime options are interpreted by Language Environment and the application arguments are passed to the application.
NOEXECOPS: Specifies that you cannot enter runtime options on the command line. Language Environment passes the entire argument string to the application.
