Obtaining Conversion Reports

The Conversion Aid normally produces a conversion report each time you issue the command. The name of the spooled file corresponds to the file name specified in the TOFILE parameter. If you try to convert a member that already exists or has an unsupported member type, then a message is printed in the job log indicating that these members have not been converted. The log file, if requested, is also updated to reflect that no conversion has occurred. However, no information regarding these members is placed in the report.

The conversion report includes the following information:

The conversion error messages provide you with suggestions on how to correct the error. In addition, any CALL operations and /COPY directives in the unconverted source are flagged to help you in identifying the various parts of the application you are converting. In general, you should convert all RPG components of an application at the same time.

If you do not want a conversion report, then specify CVTRPT(*NO).
