As noted in this thread, one of the features the Language team is investigating as a candidate for the 11.7.0 release, is the introduction of an extension to the COMPILE statement which allows the developer to specify options which customize the compilation process. My expectation is that this feature will be in an upcoming ESAP (early software access program) for 11.70. OpenEdge development is working on the introduction of three options: require-full-names: This requires that all table and field names be their full unabbreviated names as they appear in the schema. That is, this disables the compiler’s ability to implicitly resolve abbreviated names in tables. require-field-qualifiers: This requires that all buffer references (including database tables, temp-tables, and buffers) be fully qualified. It disables the ability of the compiler to implicitly resolve the buffer to which a field reference refers. require-full-keywords: This would disable the support for abbreviated keywords in the language The issues / concerns noted in this thread will be added to this feature's backlog.
