%ENCRYPTON

9.0

The %ENCRYPTON compiler directive instructs the compiler to encrypt all INIT and DIM array initialization strings within the object code file. The instruction uses the following formats:

Where:

key

Optional. A literal string that is the encryption key.

Flags Affected: NONE

Note the following:

1. The {key} string must be a valid string as defined for the ENCRYPT instruction.

2. If the {key} string is not specified, the compiler encrypts the data using the default ENCRYPT operations.

3. If a second %ENCRYPTON directive is encountered while a previous %ENCRYPTON directive is active, the second %ENCRYPTON setting is used.

4. The user program must use the DECRYPT instruction on any INIT or DIM array initialization data strings before use in a program.
