Ravi,

Switches in RPG are represented by special indicators U1-U8 (left to right). So,
%SWITCH(1XXXXXXX) is testing for U1 from your program.

Subject: How does a %SWITCH work in a CL program

Howdy folks,
     
I am trying to debug a JDE CL program. In the CL a call is made to 
a RPG program.
  CALL P98315 PARM(&PSPID &PSVERS &PSFILE &PSMBR &PSMSGQ)
   IF COND(%SWITCH(1XXXXXXX)) THEN (DO)
    GOTO EOJ
   ENDDO
     
I have never worked with %SWITCH so I am not sure how to debug this. 
Anyways, after the call to the RPG is made and control returns to 
the CL, the IF condition is true and the CL program terminates.
What do I look for in the RPG that would change the %SWITCH status? 
How does the RPG communicate the changed status back to the CL?
     
Any pointers would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
