4.3.5 -datasave, -ds, (-datasave), -nodatasave, -nds

The -datasave switch tells KAP to treat local variables in a subroutine or function that appear in DATA statements as if they were also in SAVE statements. That is, their values will be retained between invocations of the subroutine or function. This is the practice of many commercial Fortran compilers. This choice affects certain optimizations performed by KAP.

The negative switch, -nodatasave , complies with the Fortran 77 standard.

See also the -save command switch.
