ODOOSVS sets the ODOSLIDE Compiler directive at the end.
When ODOOSVS is specified, the length of variable-length groups and the address of items following variable-length tables is evaluated at the time when the OCCURS DEPENDING ON item is modified, rather than at the time when the variable-length group or sliding data item is referenced.
