  • Subject: RE: ILE/C Fornt-end to the MI Compiler
  • From: Leif Svalgaard <l.svalgaard@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
  • Date: Mon, 8 Nov 1999 13:10:56 -0600

Phil, I've been trying to post the MI-front-end but it was bounced
everytime.
I'm coat-tailing it to this reply. Not to compete with you, but to point out
that the wrapper should support things like %INCLUDE, etc. Anyway
here it is:

Every AS/400 comes with an MI-compiler built in. It is the QPRCRTPG API.
It does not take input from a source file member, but rather wants the
source
as one big in-memory parameter. The following RPG program, when run, will
create the CRTMIPGM program, that will read a source file member (by
default in file QMISRC) and produce a program in *CURLIB. 

You run the compiler interface like this:
   CALL CRTMIPGM MYPROG

You can also (should) make a command to call CRTMIPGM.

Since the program sits between your source and what is passed to the API,
one can be fancy and implement things that the API does not support, such 
as INCLUDE files, macros, DEFINEs, etc.

In fact the program posted already supports INCLUDE.
Place a line anywhere in the source like this:
%INCLUDE YOURSTUFF
to include the member YOURSTUFF (from the QMISRC file).
You can have as many INCLUDES as you want (can't be nested yet).

With time we can work together and improve the program.
The example given in IBM's API manuals is much too complicated
and won't run as given (the initial program is larger than the 2000
character limit set by CL). It is instructive though.
