AS
The AS clause that types a variable or function result can be used in DIM,LOCAL DIM and DEFSUB. It provides the kc compiler with extra information to enable it to error attempts to use the variable in other context.
Compatibility
AS was introduced in KCML 6.40 however it is only used for consistency checking by the kc compiler and has no effect at runtime.
