A WFL job can initiate compilations by using the COMPILE statement. The COMPILE statement initiates a compiler and specifies the object code file to be compiled. The COMPILE statement can also include an object code file disposition, which specifies whether the object code file is to be executed once it is compiled, and whether the object code file is to be saved. The COMPILE statement can also be used to invoke the Binder. BIND is a synonym for the COMPILE statement.
