What I usually do is to do a CHGVAR in the CL and just put the numeric value
into a numeric variable, then pass the variable as the parm. The example below
has a decimal variable called "&NUMBER" which I declared with an initial value
of 2 in the CL. The RPGLE program just added 47 to the parm and set on LR. I
ran it in debug and the value at LR time was 49 so I'm guessing it did all the
things you wished to do. I prefer this solution because all of the numbers are
in the clear and easy to follow through. By the way, I also changed the CL to
declare the initial value of &NUMBER to be -2 and got an answer of 45.
Rajeev, I did this (use fixed font to view this):
The CL code:
FMT ** ...+... 1 ...+... 2 ...+... 3 ...+... 4 ...+... 5 ...+... 6 ...+
*************** Beginning of data *******************************
0001.00 PGM
0002.00
0003.00 DCL VAR(&NUMBER) TYPE(*DEC) LEN(2) VALUE(2)
0004.00
0005.00 CALL PGM(SCRAP1) PARM(&NUMBER)
0006.00
0007.00 ENDPGM
****************** End of data **********************************
The RPGLE code:
*************** Beginning of data **********************************
0001.00 * .. ..
0002.00 C *ENTRY PLIST
0003.00 C PARM NUMBER 2 0
0004.00 C ADD 47 NUMBER
0005.00 C MOVE *ON *INLR
0006.00 * .. ..
****************** End of data *************************************
and the value in the debug view at LR time was:
