Re: Parms >32 long passed to CL Pgm

Jon,

I this snippet works as a sample...presuming you're calling a CL...WHAT
is being called?:

PGM  /* P1  */
  DCL &V1 *CHAR LEN(100)
VALUE('abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz124567890thisis+
                                alot more than 30A')
  CALL P2 parm(&V1)
endpgm

----

pgm  PARM(&V1)  /* p2  */
  dcl &v1 *char len(100)
  dmpclpgm
endpgm

-------

The dmpclpgm is just to be able to do a v.quick and dirty to verify
parms...btw this is a freeformatted lowercase copy from my SEU screen cuz
I'm too lazy to download...:)

FOR RPG:

H     1
C*
                *ENTRY   PLIST
                         PARM   A                80     
                         DUMP
                         SETON                  LR

this is v.quick and dirty but it works for illustrational purposes....just
cut and paste...
