Re: Use GDDM in C on OS/400

Jon,
By prototypes in RPG III I was meaning PLISTs and associated field
definitions.
EG: from memory there are some GDDM parameters that are defined as floating
point, which of course is not available in RPG III, so the compiler would
convert for you.
- not relevant for Patrick and his project, unless he uses an RPG III
example, in which case he should follow the doco.

Prototypes were added to RPG IV with the V3R2/V3R6 releases when we added
subprocedures. They were not part of the initial release of the language.


They were certainly never part of RPG/400 (RPG III).

Not surprisingly, I couldn't find any prototypes for RPG III nor RPG-ILE,

so I don't like your chances, sorry.

Was prototyping even a thing with RPG III? I thought that came with ILE as

a necessity for predefined ("bound") calls?

Thanks for looking out!

:wq! PoC
