Nope - Very deliberate. It is the name selected by IBM as the default value to be used for the activation group if the programmer did not specify an alternative. No different to QRPGLESRC or any other IBM selected default name.
Thanks for correcting me. So, is this by chance the name of the default activation group where the OS runs OPM programs in? I guess the advent of ILE made changes on LIC-level necessary.
This is a very confusing term, unfortunately. The term "default
activation group" can mean two very different things:
- the activation group used by OPM programs
- the default value for the ACTGRP parameter for the compiler commands
About QILE, there's nothing special about it, but I would avoid it for
production, just because it IS the default. And since it's the default,
it's often used by programs where the person who created the program
didn't really understand how activation groups work. If those other QILE
programs do things like overrides and commitment control, that could
adversely affect your application (maybe not now, but maybe in the
future when some new QILE program starts running on your system).
