 Is there a way to tell how an RPG program was compiled
RPG, RPG Programs
We have come across some vendor supplied RPG programs that have been compiled with the FIXNBR option set to *INPUTPACKED. We would like to know if there is a way to display how a program was compiled and to see all of the options selected for it. Thanks.

In short, no. In more detail, you can potentially test each program to see if it treats invalid packed values as zeros. (“Potentially” because you can’t guarantee that a 3rd-party program will use your test environment data. That’s probably a small risk, but it needs to be in mind.) — Tom

BTW, that assumes that a debug listing isn’t part of the *PGM. — Tom
