As mentioned above, the preprocessor generates Pascal code. You should use the VMS Pascal command to compile this code. Most of the Pascal command line options can be used. You must not use the g_floating qualifier if real variables in the file are interacting with Ingres floating-point objects. You should also not use the old_version qualifier, because the preprocessor generates code for Version 3. Note, too, that many of the statements that the EQUEL/Pascal preprocessor generates are nonstandard extensions provided by VAX/VMS. Consequently, you should not use the standard qualifier.

The following example preprocesses and compiles the file "test1." Note that both the EQUEL/Pascal preprocessor and the Pascal compiler assume the default extensions:
