I think the problem is the EXTPGM('ErrorLogs'). If this is an RPG program
then the name will actually be 'ERRORLOGS'. Try 'EXTPGM('ERRORLOGS') (all
uppercase) instead.

When you enclose the name in quotes, it becomes case sensitive.

Subject: EXTPGM + Prototype

Hi All

Can somebody please advise me on what I am doing wrong
here.
This is my first foray into free format and prototypes
etc

I have the following setup

In an include file called AERRORPI in which I have the
folowing prototype declarations

DErrorLogs        PR                 
EXTPGM('ErrorLogs')         
DProcess                        75A                   
           
DErrorMsg                       75A                   
           
DErrorMsg2                      75A                   
           
 *                                                    
           
DErrorLogs        PI                                  
           
DProcess                        75A                   
           
DErrorMsg                       75A                   
           
DErrorMsg2                      75A                   
           
 *                                                    
           

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

In the external RPGILE program ERRORLOGS I have the
following

 /Include QrpGleSrc,AERRORPI             

-----------------------------------------------------------
The program ERRORLOGS compiles successfully with a
severity level 10 but internally in the spool file is
the following on the interface declaration

     25+DErrorLogs        PR                 
EXTPGM('ErrorLogs')

 *RNF3776 10 a      001500+ External program on

     31+DProcess                        75A

     33+DErrorMsg2                      75A           
                                


I can actually run this program from teh command line
and I does what is intended so no problem there.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Additionally I have a second program that contains the
same /include directive

The result of the compilation is

     34+DErrorLogs        PR                 
EXTPGM('ErrorLogs')                      
     35+DProcess                        75A           
                                
     36+DErrorMsg                       75A           
                                
     37+DErrorMsg2                      75A           
                                
     38+ *                                            
                                
     39+DErrorLogs        PI

 *RNF3776 10 a      001500+ External program on

                            same as program being
created.                             
     40+DProcess                        75A

     42+DErrorMsg2                      75A           
                                

This program compilation fails with the above error
message severity 30

Can anyone please advise me on what I am doing wrong
here or am I being a complete numpty


Thanks in advance for any help
