There are a few tasks related to START-PARAMETERS, so it's challenging to get an overall status. It looks like trunk-11342 has full conversion support and partial runtime support for prog.kw_stup_par. #3812 and #4162 as well as this one.
Is the work focused on main/LegacyCLI.java for adding support for options? It looks to me like -rereadnolock and -icfparam are supported (even though the comment indicates "only rereadnolock command line parameter is supported".
The contents of .pf files (ABL default startup pf in $DLC/startup.pf, $PROSTARTUP environment variable, and user-specified .pf file) are supposed to app in this attribute, along with any specified on the command line. Are we supporting those methods of passing parameters?
It doesn't look like our implementation of util/NumEntries.java applies to the SESSION:STARTUP-PARAMETERS attribute.

Never-mind on this point. It looks fine.

Yes. Hint: if all you care about (at this time) is conversion support, then you can ignore this task.

Yes.
The lookup of an option may be form the runtime instead of from the directory. But the point here is to add support for those options which FWD can support. Then LegacyCLI maps that into a compatible STARTUP-PARAMETERS string.

These have no meaning in FWD, so we don't care about them. In addition, even LegacyCLI is NOT about passing parameters, right? It is about reporting various state as if these were passed on the now-non-existent legacy command line.

I think you are confusing the NUM-ENTRIES() built-in function with the NUM-ENTRIES attribute. util/NumEntries.java is related to the attribute and has nothing to do with STARTUP-PARAMETERS.
