Re: Passing Parms Between RPG programs using Pointer

Unless you specifically put the word "VALUE" in your prototype, you're
passing by pointer.

Before the "value" keyword existed in RPG, *all* parameters were passed by
pointer.   It was the only way to do it in (OPM) RPG/400 as well as  ILE
RPG/400 in V3R1.
