/CHARACTERISTICS=(option[ . . . ]) /CHARACTERISTICS=ALL (D) Indicates which characteristics of the occurrences should be checked. You can use one or more of the following options to request specific information: IMPLICIT_ Checks that all symbols are explicitly DECLARATIONS declared. TYPE Checks that the types of all occurrences of each symbol match. UNIQUENESS Checks that multiple declarations of the same symbol have the same name. UNUSED_SYMBOLS Checks that all symbols are used. USAGE Looks for symbols that are read but never written, or written but never read. ALL Checks all of the preceding characteristics. Any of these options (except ALL) can have the prefix NO to indicate that the characteristic should not be checked. Each of the characteristic options takes a query-expression as an optional value. The characteristic-specific query expression specifies the set of occurrences for which that characteristic will be checked. If the prefix NO is present, then the query expression indicates occurrences for which that characteristic will not be checked. The default query expression for each characteristic option is to check all occurrences.
