Dependencies:
If this directive is not specified, the runtime encoding is determined by the SOURCE-ENCODING directive. In this case, if the source encoding is any of the possible UTF variants, the runtime encoding of PIC X data is always set to UTF-8.
Example:
$set RUNTIME-ENCODING"ANSI"
Comments:
RUNTIME-ENCODING determines how strings are encoded into PIC X data and therefore does not include UTF-16 options.
