Re: [C400-L] Called C program kills caller on return when job hasALWMLTTHD(*YES) specified

[bdietz@xxxxxx]

I tried this on V5R1 and got the same results.  Looking at the joblog the
only thing that stood out was the mention on activation groups.

So I did the following
CRTCMOD call_c
CRTCMOD dummyc
then
CRTPGM call_c  actgrp(TEST)
CRTPGM dummyc actgrp(test)

the submitted both ways and it worked both times.

since *NEW is the default on the actgroup I would assume that is why the
problem occured.

Why that is the case will have to be answered by someone WAY smarter than
I.

Do you have any ideas as to why this might be occurring and what I can do
about it?  This problem stops any C program from calling another C
program via dynamic call in a multithread capable job.
