COMPILE

COMPILE determines whether compilation continues if diagnostic messages of a specified severity occur.

Default
COMPILE=NOC(S)
NOC
Indicates that you want only a syntax check.
NOC(W)
NOC(E)
NOC(S)
Specifies an error message level: W is warning; E is error; S is severe. When an error of the level specified or of a more severe level occurs, compilation stops, and only syntax checking is done for the balance of the compilation.
YES
Indicates that you want full compilation, including diagnostics and object code.

Specifying NOCOMPILE might affect the Associated Data file by stopping compilation prematurely, resulting in loss of specific messages.
