Re: RPG ILE Problems (Activation Groups)

Barbara,

Thanks for the correction...

So having a *SRVPGM run in the DAG via ACTGRP(*CALLER) is a bad idea...

But is it a good/bad/indifferent idea to have a ILE *PGM
[DFTACTGRP(*NO)] run in the DAG [via ACTGRP(*CALLER)]?

Charles, what you describe is true for a _service_program_, but not for
a program.

When an ILE *CALLER _program_ was running in the DAG and then a RCLRSC
is done, the programs static storage is not released, but it is
(somehow) marked for reinitialization.  When the program is called
again, all its static storage is reinitialized.

When an ILE *CALLER _service_program_ was running in the DAG and then a
RCLRSC is done, the service program's static storage is not released,
and it is not marked for reinitialization.  When a procedure in the
service program is called again, all its static storage is the same as
before the RCLRSC.
