NAME

NAME affects whether a program management binder NAME statement is appended to each object module and whether an ALIAS statement is created for each ENTRY statement.

Default

NAME=NO

ALIAS

Creates a program management binder ALIAS statement for each ENTRY statement in the program. The ALIAS statement is inserted preceding the NAME statement corresponding to the PROGRAM-ID.

NOALIAS

Appends a program management binder NAME statement (NAME modname(R)) to each object module created in a batch compilation. The module name (modname) is derived from the PROGRAM-ID according to the rules for forming external module names.

NO

Does not append program management binder NAME statements.

The NAME option lets you create multiple modules in a program library with a single batch compilation, which can be useful for dynamic calls.
