Re: ILE question : parmameters, modules and service programs

Also, if I'm not mistaken you don't need to recompile programs if you're
making a module change. You can implement the module into production and
do a UPDPGM. As long as the module has not changed it's procedural
interfaces that is all you have to do. I'm not sure if the module needs
to stay in the production environment after a UPDPGM - haven't tried
that yet.

For clarity, the exact same mechanism holds true for service programs. Compile the module, UPDSRVPGM and deploy the service program. No need to compile any of the calling programs unless the interface changed, and I've never done that without a Seriously Good Reason.

The module is never needed in production, either for bind by reference or bind by copy.
