Debug eval RPGLE %BIFs

Hi,

Has anyone else tried during a debug session of an RPG/ILE (CRTBNDRPG)
program  to eval one of the new file bifs (%EQUAL, %FOUND, %EOF)? I
tried this today and the debugger insisted that the Identifier doe not
exist. I tried both form %FOUND and %FOUND(FILE). Other bifs used in
the program (%ELEM...) can be evalled ok.
System is V4R3M0 which means the RPG is V4R2M0, most current cum ptf.

I also noticed that a successful CHAIN does not reset the %EOF. I
scanned "ILE RPG for AS/400 Reference" for any information on bifs and
these particular bifs without finding any mention that this would be
normal behavior. It seems to me that if a CHAIN (or SETLL for that
matter) that is successful, the file cursor now points to a valid
record and therefore the %EOF should be false especially when the
INFDS is.

TIA
