HCOBND environment variable

Deprecated. Specifies an alternative directory in which to write DBRM files created during compilation.

Syntax:

SET HCOBND=path
export HCOBND

Parameter:

path: The full path to the directory where you want to store created DBRM (.bnd) files.

Properties:

Default:

None

Comments:

Attention: HCOBND is deprecated, and provided for backward compatibility only. As an alternative, we recommend that you use either the BIND or the BINDDIR compiler directive option.

The directory specified by the HCOBND environment variable applies to all DBRM files created by the DB2 ECM unless you override it using the BIND or the BINDDIR compiler directive option. For complete information on DBRM file output options, including how to determine the current output file location, see Binding.

Example:

SET HCOBND=/mydir/binds
export HCOBND
