Hi,

I thought that prototyping protected me from this type of error, but it seems i was wrong.

* MyVar declared like data dictionary standard.
D gMyVar S LIKE ( DEF_MyVar )

MyProc ( gMyVar )


* Prototype for MyProc.
D MyProc PR N
D IMyVar 9 2

I declared gMyVar using our standard without closely looking at MyProc's prototype definition.
Unit tests went OK. As this was a calcul of customer subscription fees, I did a test on all customers, eventually I got a MCH1210 zone receptor too small.
Using STRSRVJOB and STRDBG, I was unable to step into MyProc, I know not why.
I found that the attributs of gMyVar were 9P0. I thought that the compiler would have picked this up? How should I avoid this kind of error ( without modifying the hard coded definition, of course )?

Thanks.
