When ACIF processes any unrecognized or unsupported parameter, it issues a
message, ignores the parameter, and continues processing any remaining
parameters until the end of the file, at which time it terminates processing.
If the same parameter is specified more than one time, ACIF uses the last
value specified. For example, if the following is specified:
CPGID=37
CPGID=395
ACIF uses code page 395.
Comments must be specified using “/*” as the beginning delimiter. For example:
FORMDEF=F1TEMP /ᑍ Temporary FORMDEF
FORMDEF=F1PROD /ᑍ Production-level FORMDEF
Comments can appear anywhere, but ACIF ignores all information in the record
following the “/*” character string.
Although ACIF supports parameter values spanning multiple records, it does
not support multiple parameters in a single record. The following is an example
of this:
CHARS=XGT1 CCTYPE=A /ᑍ This is not allowed.
