Dependencies:
This directive also sets the runtime encoding unless the RUNTIME-ENCODING directive is specified.
Comments:
SOURCE-ENCODING passes the encoding of the source program to the compiler. It is then used to determine the runtime encoding, unless the RUNTIME-ENCODING directive is specified.
SOURCE-ENCODING can be overridden if the source file includes a Unicode byte order mark (BOM) for UTF-8, UTF-16, portable or native.
