Re: Operational Descriptor for Data Structure using CEEDOD

Dave,

Frustrating isn't it.  I usually do something like:

dStructure                    s                      like(StructureDS)
dpStructure                 s                  *   inz(%addr(Structure))
dStructureDS              ds                   based(pStructure)

I then pass Structure.  I have been told that this is a 
non-compiler issue.  I wish someone could make this work.  If 
this is a Rochester issue they ought to just fix it.  In the mean 
time, it is so simple to code around I would think someone who 
writes compilers could put in a universal under the covers 
work around.

Folks:

When I pass a string to CEEDOD it correctly describes the parameter.
When I pass a character data structure it says "Missing operational
descriptor" .  Of course, I can copy the data structure into a string
and pass it as a parameter (which works), but I am curious, how do
others handle data structures with options(*varsize) with opdesc in the
prototype?
