Subject: SQL UDF and *LIBL


I've created some SQL user defined functions (UDF) that I am using in my
embedded SQLRPGLE programs.  I am having a problem that the UDF will not use
my *LIBL.  In my regular embedded SQL I do not need to specify the library
that contains the file; It uses my LIBL.  The function however is forcing me
to HARDCODE the library in order to work correctly.   Anybody know what I'm
doing wrong?

Below is the code fro the function and the SQLRPGLE program at V5R2:

CREATE FUNCTION GETCEN  (pYear Decimal (2,0))  
Returns Decimal(2,0)  
Language SQL  
Reads SQL Data  
Deterministic  
Returns Null On Null Input   

Begin  
 Declare wCenturyBaseYear Decimal(2,0); 
 Declare wLowCentury Decimal(2,0); 
 Declare wHighCentury Decimal(2,0); 
 Declare pCentury Decimal(2,0);  

Set Path = *LIBL;

Select SYBSYR, SYLCEN, SYHCEN  
 Into wCenturyBaseYear, wLowCentury, wHighCentury  
 From MYFILE   
 Where SYCO = 01 and SYID = '  ';  

If wCenturyBaseYear IS NULL Then  
  Set wCenturyBaseYear = 85;  
  Set wLowCentury = 19;  
  Set wHighCentury = 20; 
End If;   

If pYear > wCenturyBaseYear Then   
 Set  pCentury = wLowCentury; 
Else   
 Set pCentury = wHighCentury; 
End If;  

Return pCentury;  

End -- GETCEN;


Below gives me an error at runtime that "MYFILE in MYLIB(which is my CURLIB)
type *FILE not found" even though MYFILE is in my LIBL.
 *                                  
C/EXEC SQL                          
C+ SET :@CENT = GETCEN(:@YEAR)      
C/END-EXEC
