Default: ALOWCBL=YES
YES: Allows the use of the PROCESS (or CBL) statements in COBOL programs.
NO: Diagnoses the use of PROCESS (or CBL) statements in a program as an error.

Note:

ALOWCBL cannot be overridden at compile time because it cannot be included in the PROCESS (or CBL) statement.
The PROCESS (or CBL) statement specifies compiler-option parameters within source programs. If your installation requirements do not allow compiler options to be specified in a source program, specify ALOWCBL=NO.
