You can use compile options to specify compilation output files
as follows:
Table 1. Compile options
that provide output file namesOutput File Type |
Compiler Option |
Object Module |
OBJECT(filename) |
Listing File |
SOURCE (filename),
LIST(filename), INLRPT(filename) (Note:
All listings must go to the same file. The last given location is
used.) |
Preprocessor Output |
PPONLY(filename) |
Events File |
EVENTS(filename) |
Template Output |
TEMPINC(location) |
Template Registry |
TEMPLATEREGISTRY(filename) |
When compiler options that generate output files are specified
without suboptions to identify the output files, and, in the case
of a batch job, the designated ddnames are not allocated, the output
file names are generated based on the name of the source file.
Note: The
exception to this case is Template Registry, which is fixed to templreg,
and Template Output, which is fixed to tempinc.
For
data sets, the compiler generates a low-level qualifier by appending
a suffix to the data set name of the source, as
Table 2 shows.
If you compile source from
z/OS® UNIX files without specifying
output file names in the compiler options, the compiler writes the
output files to the current working directory. The compiler does the
following to generate the output file names:
- Appends a suffix, if it does not exist
- Replaces the suffix, if it exists
The following default suffixes are used:

Notes: - Output files default to the z/OS UNIX directory if the source
resides in the z/OS UNIX file system, or to an MVS™ data set if the source resides
in a data set.
- If you have specified the OE option, see OE | NOOE for a description of the default naming
convention.
- If you supply inline source in your JCL, the compiler will not
generate an output file name automatically. You can specify a file
name either as a suboption for a compiler option, or on a ddname in
your JCL.
- If you are using #pragma options to specify
a compile-time option that generates an output file, you must use
a ddname to specify the output file name when compiling under
batch. The compiler will not automatically generate file names
for output that is created by #pragma options.
Example: Under TSO, the compiler generates the object file
userid.TEST.SRC.OBJ if
you compile the following:
cc TEST.SRC (OBJ
The compiler generates the object file
userid.TEST.SRC.OBJ(HELLO) if
you compile the following:
cc 'hlqual.TEST.SRC(HELLO)' (OBJ
