We are beginning the transition to COBOL V5.2 from V4.2 and exploring the new options available for debugging.
We just discovered that the INITCHECK option is incompatible with OPTIMIZE(0). Using both options generates this warning-level message: IGYOS4021-W The "INITCHECK" option was discarded due to option conflict resolution. The "OPTIMIZE(0)" option took precedence. There is no restriction documented for INITCHECK in the V5.2 Programmer's Guide and no mention of this incompatibility in the section on incompatible compiler options either. Is this a maintenance issue? Are we missing a PTF or was there a PTF applied that introduced the restriction without updating the documentation? If the latter, a pointer to the PTF documentation would be appreciated.
