Re: Queries on Modules and Service programs

I have a utility called GETSRCDTA that takes a list of libraries and
creates a file with data on where source members are and the names of
the member in each program or service program. It can then be queried
to list where modules are used.

I will send it out if needed.

                   Build Source File/Member List (GETSRCDTA)

Type choices, press Enter.

Library List . . . . . . . . . .                 Name
               + for more values
Output file  . . . . . . . . . .   SRCLIST       Name
  Library  . . . . . . . . . . .     QTEMP       Name
Replace or add records . . . . .   *REPLACE      *REPLACE, *ADD


This is the output file layout. It uses all the system API's to build this file.

Program Name  ADDMSG2
Program Library  ALANC
Object Type  *PGM
Object Attribute  RPGLE
Source File Name  QSRCF

Right. The thing I was warning about was using the same module in
multiple programs or service programs. I use multiple modules almost
half of my service programs or programs. I especially like being able
to bind CLLE modules to RPG to perform a function.

Alan,

lets make this straight ...

a module is a compilation of a sourcemember tha may contain several
subprocedures
a service program is a program creation of the module, but it may consist
of several
modules - personally I preffer a one to one relation
a /copy module reflects the total service program interface

I hear real bad practice. Using a module in multiple programs or
service programs. This is a definite no, no and creates tons of
problems down the line. If a piece of logic needs to be used in
multiple places, it should be created as a service program and then
called by other programs or service programs.

 Suppose I made some change to module 1 and I want to recompile all
the
programs which uses this module. How will I know what all are the
modules/SP which uses the module?

After creating a program by giving reference to a SP, can I delete
the SP
object?
