A.1.8 COUNT compile option

This option specifies whether to use the COUNT function (COUNT) or not (NOCOUNT).

Item

Description

Determines whether to use COUNT function

Specifies whether the COUNT function can be used. The default is NOCOUNT.

COUNT

Uses the COUNT function.

NOCOUNT

Does not use the COUNT function.

Note

  • If COUNT is specified, processing to output COUNT information is embedded in an object program, decreasing execution performance. After debugging, recompile the program with NOCOUNT specified.

  • COUNT cannot be specified together with the TRACE compile option. If both of these options are specified together, the option specified last is used.
