I'm not sure that I understand what you're asking... Do you want to allow the length of an e-mail address to vary from 1-200 characters (for example?)

Or do you want to be able to accept a variable number of addresses?

In either case, you can achieve the results by creating a *CMD interface for your program instead of using the CALL command to run it. (What you can do with the CALL command is limited because it doesn't know anything about the program it's calling.)

Pro's,
This might be a very simple question but I am newbie so here is my question.
I have a small piece of RPGLE code which works great but I want to have
varying length parms. Is it possible? The code that I have right now is as
follows..
*******************************************
    H dftactgrp(*no) actgrp(*new)
     * Define prototype for Java procedure call
    Daccptargs4$main  PR                  STATIC
    D                                     EXTPROC(
    D                                       *JAVA:
    D                                       'accptargs4':
    D                                       'main')
    D                                 O   CLASS(*JAVA:'java.lang.String')
    D                                     DIM(3)
    D                                     CONST
    DString$new       PR              O   EXTPROC(
    D                                       *JAVA:
    D                                       'java.lang.String':
    D                                       *CONSTRUCTOR)
    D                                     CLASS(
    D                                       *JAVA:
    D                                       'java.lang.String')
    D bytes                       1950A    CONST VARYING
    Dargs             S               O   CLASS(
    D                                       *JAVA:
    D                                       'java.lang.String')
    D                                     DIM(3)

    c     *entry        plist
    C                   PARM                    reclst           27
    C                   PARM                    subj              4
    C                   PARM                    msg               4
     /free
       args(1) = String$new(reclst);
       args(2) = String$new(subj);
       args(3) = String$new(msg);
       accptargs4$main(args);
       *INLR = *ON ;
     /end-free
**********************************************

This works great if I do a 'CALL PGM(TESTING/SWR991TEST) PARM(
jakemorkel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx TEST TEST)' which has the first parm length =
27, second parm = 4, third parm = 4. I want to have the first second and the
third parms of varying length so that when I call the program I could give
the first parm as jacobmorkl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx,
matthewsparks@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx,...etc. Is this possible? Any guidance in
this matter would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Jake.
