Supporting error feedback for COBOL and PL/I programs

The Developer for z/OS® product supports error feedback for COBOL and PL/I programs with default property settings for COBOL and PL/I source files. These properties work together to support error feedback.

About this task

The COBOL and PL/I Compile Step Option windows include a checkbox and field to allow users to indicate whether the step supports error feedback. If you select this checkbox, then the field below it is enabled to specify the error feedback qualifier. For COBOL and PL/I, because error feedback is supported by default, the checkbox is selected by default and the text box contains the default values of <HLQ>.ERRCOB and <HLQ>.ERRPLI for COBOL and PL/I.
