SSRANGE

SSRANGE is a parameter that should only be used during development. Additional overhead is needed to check the validity of index and subscript references during run time. The default is NOSSRANGE.

  • Using SSRANGE with CHECK(ON) is slower than NOSSRANGE.
  • Using SSRANGE with CHECK(OFF) is also slower than NOSSRANGE.

Important

Starting with Enterprise COBOL 5.1, SSRANGE checks cannot be disabled at runtime.
