I compile using option 14(Compile)
NOTE: I suggest CRTBNDxxx commands (PDM Option 14.) be reserved for
non-ILE compile/bind.
May I offer a differing opinion? In my company, the vast majority of
activity takes place in programs, not service programs. And so I prefer
that when someone takes PDM option 14 on a source member, they end up
with a compiled, running program, just as they expect.
Putting one's service programs in a binding directory, and noting that
on the H spec results in a clean compile using PDM option 14. There's
nothing wrong creating modules (CRTxxxMOD) and then running CRT/UPDPGM
over them, especially if you have a MAKE-like tool that lets you
seamlessly recreate the final program automatically.
It's just my personal preference to automate as much of these steps as
possible, and PDM option 14 -> running program is so intuitive to most
System i programmers that it seems a shame to ignore that capability.
That generally leaves one with a separate development path for service
programs vs programs. And that might be off-putting for some companies.
I prefer to optimise for the activity that's most common, that's all.
