Re: PCML novice quiestions -- WEB400

I think you are confusing "parameters in which you happen to return a value" with "Return Values" Mark.

A return value is the result of running a function (i.e. subprocedure in RPG) - programs can't return values, only functions.

IWS cannot use any subprocedure that returns a value other than an integer. As I noted before it is a limitation in the underlying toolbox, which can be circumvented by using RPG's new RTNPARM option.

I use IWS to create web services that return info, and I don't have any issues with return values. I use CRTBNDRPG, though, so I'm not sure if CRTRPGMOD handles something different in regards to creating the *PCML. I am also on V5R4, so I suppose that could have something to do with it.
