Precompiler option list format

When you call the precompiler, you can specify a number of options, in a list, for SQL statement processing. You must specify that option list in a particular format.

The option list must begin on a 2-byte boundary. The first 2 bytes contain a binary count of the number of bytes in the list (excluding the count field). The remainder of the list is EBCDIC and can contain precompiler option keywords, separated by one or more blanks, a comma, or both.
