There are a few ways to compile an SQL program in the ILE environment with special compiler parameters, such as ACTGRP:

1. If the program is ILE RPG, you may be able to specify the parameter in the H specification of the program.

H DFTACTGRP(*NO) ACTGRP('MYACTGRP')


2. If the program is ILE COBOL, you may be able to specify the parameter as a process option. But the ACTGRP parameter is not available as a process option.

3. Create a module using

      ===> CRTSQLxxxI OBJTYPE(*MODULE)

followed by

      ===> CRTPGM ACTGRP(MYACTGRP)


4. Create precompiled source using

      ===> CRTSQLxxxI OBJTYPE(*PGM) OPTION(*NOGEN)
                      TOSRCFILE(MYLIB/MYFILE)
      ===> CRTBNDxxx SRCFILE(MYLIB/MYFILE) ACTGRP(MYACTGRP)
