I have an RPG UDF that returns a date. It worked on V5R3 and V5R4. We went to V6R1 a a couple of months ago and it no longer works.

It is registered like this using RUNSQLSTM:

DROP FUNCTION SLENNON/DATE_MDY
;
CREATE FUNCTION SLENNON/DATE_MDY
(INDATE DECIMAL(8,0) )
RETURNS DATE
PARAMETER STYLE SQL
LANGUAGE RPGLE
NO SQL
DETERMINISTIC
EXTERNAL NAME 'SLENNON/DATE_SQL(DATE_MDY)'
CALLED ON NULL INPUT
NO EXTERNAL ACTION

I can watch the RPG code in the debugger and it returns a date and the null indicator is set to zero, but STRSQL (green screen) always shows the replacement value (+s). SQuirreL (JBDC) always shows nulls.

What am I missing? Something seems to have changed in V6R1...
