Continuation lines

HLASM General Information
GC26-4943-06

You are allowed as many as nine continuation lines for most ordinary assembler language statements. However, you are allowed to specify as many continuation lines as you need for the following statements:
  • Macro prototype statements
  • Macro instruction statements
  • The AIF, AGO, SETx, LCLx, and GBLx conditional assembly instructions.

When you specify the FLAG(CONT) assembler option, the assembler issues new warning messages if it suspects that a continuation statement might be incorrect.
