Syntax options: LIST NOLIST Oracle Rdb determines whether or not the SQL precompiler generates a list file (default file extension .lis) that contains information about the SQL compilation and the host language compilation. In addition, if the logical name SQL$KEEP_PREP_FILES is defined, the SQL precompiler retains an intermediate module list file (file extension .mli), which contains information about the SQL compilation only. If you specify the LIST qualifier and do not include a file specification, the SQL precompiler creates a list file with the same file name as your source file with the file extension .lis. The NOLIST qualifier is the default.
