Re: Execution hierarchy of bound module vs bound SVC pgms.

Here is the scenario...

Existing code has a program (bound *MODULE) that is the registered Error Handler. Other bound *MODULES are also bound to the same Error Handler.

New Condition Handler that attaches as a Bind service program. It is registered in place of the original *MODULE in the caller.

Because the other bound *MODULES use the original, both Condition Handlers need to be included in the CRTPGM statement.

Provided that each module registers its particular flavor of condition handler, is there any hierarchical processing that might trip up?

Is there any particular harm in including both condition handlers in the *PGM?

Steve, assuming the new condition handler has a different name from the original one, there should be no problem. When procedure H1 is registered as condition handler for procedure P1, that connection is specific to H1 and P1. If there is some other procedure H2 that is registered as a condition handler to some other procedure P2, that relationship is irrelevant to P1 and H1.
