<p>The Create CICS COBOL (CRTCICSCBL) command calls the CICS precompiler, which precompiles either OPM or ILE COBOL source containing CICS statements and produces a temporary source member. (At this time COBOL copybooks are not expanded in the Cobol source.) If the source program also contains Structured Query Language (SQL) commands, it optionally calls the SQL precompiler following a successful CICS precompile. The resulting precompiler output is placed into a temporary source member. Following the CICS precompilation and the optional SQL precompilation, the COBOL compiler may optionally be called to compile the program.
</p>
<p>
<b>Note: </b>It is possible to precompile your SQL statements first by running the CRTSQLCBL command and specifying the *NOGEN option on the OPTION parameter. This puts the SQL precompiler output in QSQLTEMP in library QTEMP. You must then run the CRTCICSCBL command specifying SRCFILE as QTEMP/QSQLTEMP; the SRCMBR name can be obtained by looking in this file for your SQL precompiled program source. The rest of the parameters on CRTCICSCBL can be entered as normal.
</p>
<p>It is not recommended that applications be compiled in this way but, if necessary, it can be done.

<h3>COBOL options (CBLOPT)</h3>
<p>Specifies the options to use when the object program is created. The listing may be required if a problem occurs in COBOL. Note that unpredictable results could occur when mixing CICS and COBOL file access.
</p>
<p>Some possible values are listed below. Refer to the CICS documentation for a complete list of options that are supported.
</p>
<p><b>Source Listing Options</b>
</p>
<ul>
<li>*NOSRC: or *NOSOURCE: Specifies that a source listing is not produced by the compiler.
</li>
<li>*SRC or *SOURCE: Specifies that a source listing is produced by the compiler, consisting of all the source input and error messages.
</li>
</ul>
<p><b>Verify Ranges</b>
</p>
<ul>
<li>*RANGE: At run-time, the system verifies that subscripts are within the correct ranges, but does not verify index ranges. It also checks for reference modification and compiler-generated substring operations.
</li>
<li>*NORANGE: Does not verify ranges at run-time.
</li>
</ul>
<p><b>Optimization</b>
</p>
<ul>
<li>*NOOPTIMIZE: The compiler performs only standard optimizations for the program.
</li>
<li>*OPTIMIZE: The program object created may run more efficiently and may require less storage. However, specifying *OPTIMIZE can substantially increase the time required to compile a program.
</li>
</ul>
<p><b>CODE/400 options</b>
</p>
<ul>
<li>*NOLSTDBG: This option determines the kind of information you see on your programmable work station when using the IBM CoOperative Development Environment/400 product.
<p>The compiler does not produce a listing view, or listing-level debugging information.
</p>
</li>
<li>*LSTDBG: This option determines the kind of information you see on your programmable work station when using the IBM CoOperative Development Environment/400 product.
<p>The compiler produces a listing view, source-level error information, and listing-level debugging information.
</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p><b>Data truncation</b>
</p>
<ul>
<li>*STDTRUNC: This option applies only to USAGE BINARY data. When *STDTRUNC is selected, USAGE BINARY data is truncated to the number of digits in the PICTURE clause of the BINARY receiving field. This option is only valid for ILE COBOL objects.
</li>
<li>*NOSTDTRUNC: This option applies only to USAGE BINARY data. When *NOSTDTRUNC is selected, BINARY receiving fields are truncated only at half-word, full-word, or double-word boundaries. BINARY sending fields are also handled as half-words, full-words, or double-words. Thus, the full binary content of the field is significant. Also, the DISPLAY statement will convert the entire content of a BINARY field, with no truncation. This option is only valid for ILE COBOL objects.

<p>*READ: Records are blocked for read-only retrieval of data for cursors when:
</p>
<ul>

<li>The cursor is declared with a FOR FETCH ONLY clause or there are no dynamic statements that could run a positioned UPDATE or DELETE statement for the cursor.

<h3>Delay PREPARE (DLYPRP)</h3>
<p>Specifies whether the dynamic statement validation for a PREPARE statement is delayed until an OPEN, EXECUTE, or DESCRIBE statement is run. Delaying validation improves performance by eliminating duplicate validation.
</p>
<ul>
<li>*NO: Dynamic statement validation is not delayed. When the dynamic statement is prepared, the access plan is validated. When the dynamic statement is used in an OPEN or EXECUTE statement, the access plan is revalidated. Because the authority or the existence of objects referred to by the dynamic statement may change, you must still check the SQLCODE or SQLSTATE after issuing the OPEN or EXECUTE statement to ensure that the dynamic statement is still valid.
</li>
<li>*YES: Dynamic statement validation is delayed until the dynamic statement is used in an OPEN, EXECUTE, or DESCRIBE SQL statement. When the dynamic statement is used, the validation is completed and an access plan is built. If you specify *YES on this parameter for precompiled programs, you should check the SQLCODE and SQLSTATE after running an OPEN, EXECUTE, or DESCRIBE statement to ensure that the dynamic statement is valid. If you specify *YES, performance is not improved if the INTO clause is used on the PREPARE statement or if a DESCRIBE statement uses the dynamic statement before an OPEN is issued for the statement.

</p>
<ul>
<li>*OBJTYPE: Specifies that SQL cursors are handled according to the value defined in the *OBJTYPE parameter. If *PGM was specified then CRTCBLPGM uses *ENDPGM. If *BNDPGM was specified then CRTBNDCBL uses *ENDACTGRP.
</li>
<li>*ENDPGM: Specifies that SQL cursors are closed, SQL prepared statements are discarded, and LOCK TABLE locks are released when the program ends.
</li>
<li>*ENDSQL: Specifies that SQL cursors remain open between calls and can be fetched without running another SQL OPEN. One of the programs higher on the call stack must have run at least one SQL statement. SQL cursors are closed, SQL prepared statements discarded, and LOCK TABLE locks released when the first SQL program on the call stack ends. If *ENDSQL is specified for a program that is the first SQL program called (the first SQL program on the call stack), the program is treated as if *ENDPGM were specified.
</li>
<li>*ENDJOB: Specifies that SQL cursors remain open between calls and can be fetched without running another SQL OPEN. None of the programs higher on the call stack need to have run SQL statements. SQL cursors are left open, SQL prepared statements are preserved, and LOCK TABLE locks are held when the first SQL program on the call stack ends. SQL cursors are closed, SQL prepared statements are discarded, and LOCK TABLE locks are released when the job ends. If you are running distributed database and connected remotely, the connection is dropped.

<li>*ENDACTGRP: SQL cursors are closed and SQL prepared statements are implicitly discarded, and LOCK TABLE locks are released when the activation group ends. This option is only valid for ILE COBOL objects.
