DESCRIPTION

12       You  can  use this utility to produce versions of your programs that do
13       not include the original program source.  You can use these programs to
14       replace  any  Rexx program file that includes the source, with the fol‐
15       lowing restrictions:
16
17
18       1.     The SOURCELINE built-in function returns 0  for  the  number  of
19              lines  in  the  program  and raises an error for all attempts to
20              retrieve a line.
21
22       2.     A sourceless program may not be traced.  The  TRACE  instruction
23              runs without error, but no tracing of instruction lines, expres‐
24              sion results, or intermediate expression values occurs.
25
26
27       If you specify the outputfile , the language  processor  processes  the
28       inputfile  and writes the executable version of the program to the out‐
29       putfile.  If the outputfile already exists, it is replaced.
30
31       If the language processor detects a syntax error while  processing  the
32       program,  it  reports the error and stops processing without creating a
33       new outputfile.  If you omit the  outputfile,  the  language  processor
34       performs  a  syntax check on the program without writing the executable
35       version to a file.
36
37       Note: You can use the in-storage capabilities of the RexxStart program‐
38       ming interface to process the file image of the outputfile.

41       files included in the Open Object Rexx distribution.
