# PECK - PCHECK/ECHECK Error Processing

This Natural profile parameter controls whether a compilation check with the `ECHECK` or `PCHECK` option of the `COMPOPT` system command (see the System Commands documentation) terminates after a syntax error is detected in the object source. In addition, `PECK` determines how the syntax errors are reported.

Possible settings | `S` | Stops when the first syntax error is detected. The cursor is placed in the line that contains the error and the respective error (for example, NAT0935) is issued.
`WS` | Same as `S` above, but additionally clears the message buffer when the compilation starts.
`F` | Scans the entire object and places all errors on a stack. The cursor is placed in the line where the first error is detected. If several errors occur in the same line, a Natural error message appears in this line indicating that inconsistencies were found during the `PCHECK/ECHECK` validation. If several errors occur in different lines, the above Natural error message appears in the first line. All errors accumulated on the stack are listed after the scan is complete.
`WF` | Same as `F` above, but additionally clears the message buffer when the compilation starts.
`WL` | Same as `L` below, but additionally clears the message buffer when the compilation starts.
Default setting | `L` | Scans the entire object and places all errors on a stack. The cursor is placed in the line where the last error is detected. If several errors occur in the same line, a Natural error message appears in this line indicating that inconsistencies were found during the `PCHECK/ECHECK` validation. If several errors occur in different lines, the above Natural error message appears in the last line. All errors accumulated on the stack are listed after the scan is complete.
