--- Comment #5 from James K. Lowden <jklowden at gcc dot gnu.org> --- Yes. One way to look at is to pretend there is no command-line option regarding ECs. The CDF behaves as required; it is up to the COBOL text to use it. :-) Under consideration: A CDF-directive command-line option, whereby any one-line CDF directive can be added, as though it existed in a file with -include. Scoop CDF directives from the command line into a "file" that is processed before all others. If we do it that way, the command-line "syntax" is COBOL, and self-documenting. Regardless, to answer your question, as a matter of priority, this issue due for treatment this year, but not in the next 60 days.
