KAP directives enable, disable, or modify a feature of KAP. Directives function as command qualifiers used within the input file rather than on the command line. To invoke a directive, you must either toggle the directive on, or set a desired value for its level.
With the exception of the !*$* assertions
directive,
using KAP directives will not affect the correctness of a program.
Enabling KAP assertions allows you, through the use of specific
assertions, to provide KAP with false information that might lead
KAP to perform incorrect transformations. See Chapter 7.
Most KAP directives have corresponding command qualifiers. If
conflicting settings are given on the command line and in a
directive, KAP uses the value specified on the directive. If
command-line control is desired, directives can be disabled (treated
as comments) with the /nodirectives
qualifier.
The !*$* inline
and !*$* ipa
directives
are disabled by default. When they are enabled, they take precedence
over the inlining and IPA qualifiers.
See Chapter 5 for the command qualifiers related to these directives.
KAP recognizes the Fortran CDEC$
directive. Except for
the cpar$ do_parallel
directive, KAP copies them to the
transformed code file but otherwise ignores them. A cpar$ do_
parallel
directive is copied to the transformed code file and
the immediately following loop nest is left unchanged.
