(1)

Message about options passed to the compiler at compiler invocation. This message does not appear if no options were passed.

OPTFILE: Requests options from a SYSOPTF data set.

(2)

Options coded in the PROCESS (or CBL) statement.

NOOFFSET: Suppresses a condensed listing of the PROCEDURE DIVISION.
NOMAP: Suppresses a map report of the items defined in the DATA DIVISION.

(3)

Options obtained from the SYSOPTF data set (because the OPTFILE compiler option was specified).

NOLIST: Suppresses an assembler-language expansion of the source code.
TEST: The program was compiled for use with debugging and problem determination tools (such as z/OS® Debugger and Fault Analyzer) and to get local variables listed in CEEDUMP.

(4)

Status of options at the start of this compilation.

(5)

Program diagnostics. The first message refers you to any library phase diagnostics. Diagnostics for the library phase are presented at the beginning of the listing.

(6)

Count of diagnostic messages in this program, grouped by severity level.

(7)

Program statistics for the program IGYTCARA.

(8)

Program statistics for the compilation unit. When you perform a batch compilation, the return code is the highest message severity level for the entire compilation.
