Warning and Error Options

The warning and error options enable you to set the error threshold before a object file will stop executing.

The following compiler options are supported in Visual COBOL when using ccbl (Windows) or ccbl32 and ccbl64 (UNIX) from the command line or the ACUOPT Compiler directive.

Option Definition
-a This flag is now obsolete and should not be used.
-Qm This option specifies the number of errors the compiler reports before it exits. The option must be followed by a positive numeric argument, which is the maximum number of errors the compiler reports before it exits. The default value is 100.
