IGYPP5177-U The object program exceeded 16 megabytes. Recompile the program with "TEST(SEPARATE)" or "NOTEST" compiler options, or restructure the program into smaller programs and recompile.

Explanation

The program exceeds an internal compiler limitation. When trying to compile a very large Enterprise COBOL program with TEST(NOSEPARATE), it causes the DWARF debugging information to be included in the object program and greatly increases its size.

System action

The compilation is terminated with an ABORT and RC=16.

User response

Recompile the program with TEST(SEPARATE) or NOTEST compiler options, or restructure the program into smaller programs and recompile.
