Re: AS400 C++ calling COBOL - MCH0802

[CRPence <CRPbottle@xxxxxxxxx>]

  The Opening Post provided a complete CBLLE source for the "CALLEE" 
[and two sources for the CALLER; one is CBLLE] for which the compiled 
*PGM object as created with the Create Bound COBOL Program (CRTBNDCBL) 
command effects min=0\max=3 for the "Number of parameters".  A snippet 
of that complete CBLLE source, for which apparently the "USING" effects 
the explicitly defined /hard/ number of parameters rather than a more 
/theoretical/ or /soft/ limit for the maximum, is included here:

       ------- CALLEE.CBL --------
       ...
       LINKAGE SECTION.
       01 P1 PIC X(5).
       01 P2 PIC X(5).
       01 P3 PIC X(5).
       PROCEDURE DIVISION USING P1 P2 P3.
       ...
