    Document and support #pragma once in both C/C++

    The z/OS C++ compiler supports the #pragma once directive. This is undocumented and not supported for the C language. This feature should be documented and supported for both the C and C++ languages.

    #line directive causing source to not be intermixed in ASM listing

    Sometimes C source code is embedded within generated pseudo assembly listings via the LIST option, like: 00012E 50D0 E004 000008 | ST r13,4(,r14)000132 18DE 000008 | LR r13,r14000134 End of Prolog 000009 | * { 000010 | * return foo();000134 58F0 3...

    XL C/C++ compiler setting to disallow vector (VMX/VSX) instructions

    Request for the compiler to support code generation consistent with an AIX tuning of allow_vmx=0. The AIX tuning rejects all vector instructions, treating them as illegal operations. The compiler should have a corresponding option to completely di...

    Make SA messages or at least message help, more operator friendly. In this case I refer specifically to threshold messages.

    Some SA messages tend to be cryptic for the operator. One of two things occur when the message and/or online help is not detailed enough.1. Emails are sent to the operators to update their documentation to explain what to do, which is redundant wi...

    Behaviour of comma operator in C++

    We use multiple C and C++ compilers, including IBM XL C/C++ for AIX V11.1.0.18. XL C++ appears to treat comma expressions differently depending if they are an argument to a return statement or a function or if they are used elsewhere. This behavio...
