#
## General instructions
#
# The initial runtime.cfg file is found in the $COB_CONFIG_DIR ,
# which defaults to installdir/gnucobol/config (see cobcrun --info for the
# local path that is configured).
# The environment variable COB_RUNTIME_CONFIG may define a different runtime
# configuration file to read.
# If settings are included in the runtime environment file multiple times
# then the last setting value is used, no warning occurs.
# Settings via environment variables always take precedence over settings
# that are given in runtime configuration files. And the environment is
# checked after completing processing of the runtime configuration file(s)
# All values set to string variables or environment variables are checked
# for ${envvar} and replacement is done at the time of the setting.
# You can also specify a default value for the case that envvar is not set:
# ${envvar:default} (the format ${envvar:-default} is supported, too).
# Any environment variable may be set with the directive setenv .
# Example: setenv COB_LIBARAY_PATH ${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}
# Any environment variable may be unset with the directive unsetenv
# (one var per line).
# Example: unsetenv COB_LIBRARY_PATH
# Runtime configuration files can include other files with the
# directive include .
# Example: include my-runtime-configuration-file
# To include another configuration file only if it is present use the
# directive includeif .
# You can also use ${envvar} inside this.
# Example: includeif ${HOME}/mygc.cfg
# If you want to reset a parameter to its default value use
# reset parametername .
# Most runtime variables have boolean values, some are switches, some have
# string values, integer values (if not explicit noted: unsigned) and some
# are size values.
# The boolean values will be evaluated as following:
# to true: 1, Y, ON, YES, TRUE (no matter of case)
# to false: 0, N, OFF
# A 'size' value is an unsigned integer optionally followed by K, M, or G
# for kilo, mega or giga.
# For convenience a parameter in the runtime.cfg file may be defined by using
# either the environment variable name or the parameter name.
# In most cases the environment variable name is the parameter name (in upper
# case) with the prefix COB_ .
# For a complete list of the settings in use see cobcrun --runtime-config .
# Note:
# If you want to *slightly* speed up a program's startup time, remove all
# of the comments from the actual real configuration file that is processed.
#
## General environment
#
# Environment name: COB_DISABLE_WARNINGS
# Parameter name: disable_warnings
# Purpose: turn off runtime warning messages
# Type: boolean
# Default: false
# Example: DISABLE_WARNINGS TRUE
# Environment name: COB_ENV_MANGLE
# Parameter name: env_mangle
# Purpose: names checked in the environment would get non alphanumeric
# change to '_'
# Type: boolean
# Default: false
# Example: ENV_MANGLE TRUE
# Environment name: COB_SET_DEBUG
# Parameter name: debugging_mode
# Purpose: to enable USE ON DEBUGGING procedures that were active
# during compile-time because of WITH DEBUGGING MODE,
# otherwise the code generated will be skipped
# Type: boolean
# Default: false
# Example: COB_SET_DEBUG 1
# Environment name: COB_SET_TRACE
# Parameter name: set_trace
# Purpose: to enable COBOL trace feature
# Type: boolean
# Default: false
# Example: SET_TRACE TRUE
# Environment name: COB_TRACE_FILE
# Parameter name: trace_file
# Purpose: to define where COBOL trace output should go
# Type: string : $$ is replaced by process id
# Note: file is opened for append if name starts with "+"
# Default: stderr
# Example: TRACE_FILE ${HOME}/mytrace.$$
# Environment name: COB_TRACE_FORMAT
# Parameter name: trace_format
# Purpose: to define format of COBOL trace output
# Type: string
# Default: "%P %S Line: %L"
# %P is replaced by Program-Id/Function-Id minimal length 29
# with prefix
# %I is replaced by Program-Id/Function-Id variable length,
# without prefix
# %L is replaced by Line number, right justified, length 6
# %S is replaced by statement type and name
# %F is replaced by source file name
# Example: TRACE_FORMAT "Line: %L %S"
# Note: format of GC2.2 and older:
# "PROGRAM-ID: %I Line: %L %S"
# Environment name: COB_CORE_ON_ERROR
# Parameter name: core_on_error
# Purpose: to enable operating system handling of signals and to
# raise an ABORT signal on runtime error instead of the
# default error handling, which will commonly kill the
# process after creating a coredump
# Type: 0 means catching all default signals and do full
# internal error handling as done in versions pre 3.2
# along with full internal handling of COBOL runtime
# errors
# 1 means to forward any signals; whatever happens
# by means of system signal handers will happen,
# which may include creating coredumps and killing
# the process before libcob does any cleanup; preserve
# full internal handling of COBOL runtime errors
# 2 is identical to 1, but on runtime errors explicit
# raises SIGABRT after displaying it along with the
# stacktrace and after doing minimal cleanup
# 3 similar to 2, but instead of raising SIGABRT execute
# "gcore -a -o NAME $$" (where $$ is the process id and
# NAME is specified by COB_CORE_FILENAME) as early as
# possible before doing the normal internal error
# handling; if the command does not work or if a signal
# handler was executed before a SIGABRT is raised
# Default: 0
# Example: core_on_error 3
# Note: If the operating system kills the process as part of the
# signal handling no COBOL centric dump will be created and
# no cleanup will be done either.
# When catching a signal (for example 11) it will be
# returned as exit code of the process, the generated
# coredumps store the reason for the error in the variable
# "runtime_err_str".
# Environment name: COB_CORE_FILENAME
# Parameter name: core_filename
# Purpose: to adjust the default name or specify a folder for a
# COB_CORE_ON_ERROR=3 generated coredump
# Type: string
# Default: ./core.libcob
# Example: core_filename /home/me/SomeApp.core
# Environment name: COB_STACKTRACE
# Parameter name: stracktrace
# Purpose: to disable stracktrace creation on abort
# Type: boolean
# Default: true
# Example: STRACKTRACE no
# Environment name: COB_DUMP_FILE
# Parameter name: dump_file
# Purpose: to define where COBOL dump output should go
# Note: the -fdump=all compile option prepares for dump;
# file is opened for append if name starts with "+";
# may be disabled by setting it to "NONE"
# Type: string : $$ is replaced by process id
# Default: stderr
# Example: DUMP_FILE ${HOME}/mytrace.log
# Environment name: COB_DUMP_WIDTH
# Parameter name: dump_width
# Purpose: to define COBOL dump line length
# Type: integer
# Default: 100
# Example: dump_width 120
# Environment name: COB_CURRENT_DATE
# Parameter name: current_date
# Purpose: specify an alternate Date/Time to be returned to ACCEPT
# statement; this is used for testing purposes or to tweak
# a missing offset, partial setting is allowed
# Type: numeric string in format YYYYDDMMHHMISS or date string
# or seconds since the epoch as @SSSSSSSS
# Default: the operating system date is used
# Example: COB_CURRENT_DATE "2026/03/16 16:40:52"
# current_date YYYYMMDDHHMMSS+01:00
#
## Call environment
#
# Environment name: COB_LIBRARY_PATH

# Environment name: COB_PRE_LOAD
# Parameter name: pre_load
# Purpose: modules that are loaded during startup, can be used
# to CALL COBOL programs or C functions that are part
# of a module library
# Type: string
# Note: the modules listed should NOT include extensions, the
# runtime will use the right ones on the various platforms,
# COB_LIBRARY_PATH is used to locate the modules
# Example: PRE_LOAD COBOL_function_library:external_c_library
# Environment name: COB_LOAD_CASE
# Parameter name: load_case
# Purpose: resolve ALL called program names to UPPER or LOWER case
# Type: Only use UPPER or LOWER
# Default: if not set program names in CALL are case sensitive
# Example: LOAD_CASE UPPER
# Environment name: COB_PHYSICAL_CANCEL
# Parameter name: physical_cancel
# Purpose: physically unload a dynamically-loadable module on CANCEL,
# this frees some RAM and allows the change of modules during
# run-time but needs more time to resolve CALLs (both to
# active and not-active programs)
# Alias: default_cancel_mode, LOGICAL_CANCELS (0 = yes)
# Type: TRUE/YES/1 unload module on CANCEL
# FALSE/NO/0 unload module on STOP RUN only
# NEVER never unload module, only useful for profilers
# and tracing tools that do a post-mortem lookup
# of function address
# Default: false
# Example: PHYSICAL_CANCEL TRUE
#
## File I/O
#
# Environment name: COB_VARSEQ_FORMAT
# Parameter name: varseq_format
# Purpose: declare format used for variable length sequential files

# Parameter name: file_path
# Purpose: define default location where data files are stored
# Type: file path directory
# Default: . (current directory)
# Example: FILE_PATH ${HOME}/mydata
# Environment name: COB_LS_FIXED
# Parameter name: ls_fixed
# Purpose: Defines if LINE SEQUENTIAL files should be fixed length
# (or variable, by removing trailing spaces)
# Alias: STRIP_TRAILING_SPACES (0 = yes)
# Type: boolean
# Default: false
# Note: This setting is most useful if you want to REWRITE those
# files.
# Example: LS_FIXED TRUE
# Environment name: COB_LS_VALIDATE
# Parameter name: ls_validate
# Purpose: Defines for LINE SEQUENTIAL files that the data should be
# validated as it is read (status 09) / written (status 71).
# Type: boolean
# Default: true (per COBOL 2022)
# Note: If active effectively disables COB_LS_NULLS.
# Example: LS_VALIDATE FALSE
# Environment name: COB_LS_NULLS
# Parameter name: ls_nulls
# Purpose: Defines for LINE SEQUENTIAL files what to do with data
# which is not DISPLAY type. This could happen if a LINE
# SEQUENTIAL record has BINARY/COMP data fields in it.
# Type: boolean
# Default: false
# Note: The TRUE setting will insert a null character x"00" before
# those values to escape them, and redo on read-in plus
# validating that they only occur after a null character.
# Decreases LINE SEQUENTIAL performance and prevents writing
# escape sequences or formatting within the data.
# Only checked if COB_LS_VALIDATE is disabled.
# Example: LS_NULL = TRUE
# Environment name: COB_LS_SPLIT
# Parameter name: ls_split
# Purpose: Defines for LINE SEQUENTIAL files what to do when a record
# is longer than the program handles. If 'ls_split=true' then
# the data is returned as multiple records with io status 06,
# otherwise the record is truncated, io status set to 04 and
# the file skips to the next LF.
# Type: boolean
# Default: true (per COBOL 2022)
# Example: LS_SPLIT = FALSE
# Environment name: COB_SYNC
# Parameter name: sync
# Purpose: Should the file be synced to disk after each write/update
# Type: boolean
# Default: false
# Example: SYNC: TRUE
# Environment name: COB_SORT_MEMORY
# Parameter name: sort_memory
# Purpose: Defines how much RAM to assign for sorting data
# if this size is exceeded the SORT will be done
# on disk instead of memory

# Type: size but must be within 128K and 16M
# Default: 256K
# Example: SORT_CHUNK 1M
# Environment name: COB_SEQ_CONCAT_NAME
# Parameter name: seq_concat_name
# Purpose: Does DD_asgname hold multiple input file names
# Type: boolean
# Default: false
# Example: seq_concat_name = true
# Environment name: COB_SEQ_CONCAT_SEP
# Parameter name: seq_concat_sep
# Purpose: Character separating file names
# Type: char
# Default: +
# Example: seq_concat_name = '&'
#
## Screen I/O

# Type: FLASH, SPEAKER, FALSE, BEEP
# Default: BEEP
# Example: BELL SPEAKER
# Environment name: COB_REDIRECT_DISPLAY
# Parameter name: redirect_display
# Purpose: Defines if DISPLAY output should be sent to 'stderr'
# Type: boolean
# Default: false
# Example: redirect_display Yes
# Environment name: COB_SCREEN_ESC
# Parameter name: screen_esc
# Purpose: Enable handling of ESC key during ACCEPT
# Type: boolean
# Default: false
# Note: is only evaluated if COB_SCREEN_EXCEPTIONS is active
# Example: screen_esc Yes
# Environment name: COB_SCREEN_EXCEPTIONS
# Parameter name: screen_exceptions
# Purpose: enable exceptions for function keys during ACCEPT
# Type: boolean
# Default: false
# Example: screen_exceptions Yes
# Environment name: COB_TIMEOUT_SCALE
# Parameter name: timeout_scale
# Purpose: specify translation in milliseconds for ACCEPT clauses
# BEFORE TIME value / AFTER TIMEOUT
# Type: integer
# 0 means 1000 (Micro Focus COBOL compatible), 1 means 100
# (ACUCOBOL compatible), 2 means 10, 3 means 1
# Default: 0
# Note: the minimum and possible maximum value depend on the
# screenio library used
# Example: timeout_scale 3
# Environment name: COB_INSERT_MODE
# Parameter name: insert_mode
# Purpose: specify default insert mode for ACCEPT; 0=off, 1=on
# Type: boolean
# Default: false
# Note: also sets the cursor type (if available)
# Example: insert_mode Y
# Environment name: COB_MOUSE_FLAGS
# Parameter name: mouse_flags
# Purpose: specify which mouse events will be sent as function key
# to the application during ACCEPT and how they will be
# handled
# Type: int (by bits)
# Default: 1
# Note: 0 disables the mouse cursor, any other value enables it,
# any value containing 1 will enable internal handling (click
# to position, double-click to enter).
# See copy/screenio.cpy for list of events and their values.
# Alias: MOUSE_FLAGS
# Example: 11 (enable internal handling => 1, left press => 2,
# double-click => 8; 1+2+8=11)
# Environment name: COB_MOUSE_INTERVAL
# Parameter name: mouse_interval
# Purpose: specifies the maximum time (in thousands of a second)
# that can elapse between press and release events for them
# to be recognized as a click.
# Type: int (0 - 166)
# Default: 100
# Note: 0 disables the click resolution (instead press + release
# are recognized), also disables positioning by mouse click
# Environment name: COB_DISPLAY_PRINT_PIPE
# Parameter name: display_print_pipe
# Purpose: Defines command line used for sending output of
# DISPLAY UPON PRINTER to (via pipe)
# This is very similar to Micro Focus COBPRINTER
# Note: Each executed DISPLAY UPON PRINTER statement causes a
# new invocation of command-line (= new process start).
# Each invocation receives the data referenced in
# the DISPLAY statement and is followed by an
# end-of-file condition.
# COB_DISPLAY_PRINT_FILE, if set, takes precedence
# over COB_DISPLAY_PRINT_PIPE.
# Alias: COBPRINTER
# Type: string
# Default: not set
# Example: print 'cat >>/tmp/myprt.log'

# Purpose: string to display if COB_EXIT_WAIT is processed, set to ''
# if no actual display but an ACCEPT should be done
# Type: string
# Default: 'end of program, please press a key to exit' (localized)
# Example: COB_EXIT_MSG ''
#
## Report I/O
#
# Environment name: COB_COL_JUST_LRC
