Re: Strange problem calling QSYGETPH

Well, for one thing, X'00000010' is not the same value as *INT LEN(4) VALUE(10).

All,

We've got a CL program (CF2220C) that calls QSYGETPH that we are
having trouble with. In preperation for moving from v5r2 to v5r3, we
added two more parms to the call. The parms are defined:

DCL VAR(&PWDLEN) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(4) VALUE(X'00000010')
DCL VAR(&PWDCCSID) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(4) VALUE(X'FFFFFFFF')

When we call it from a command line it works.

When we call it from another CL program, it fails _UNLESS_ the two
above parms are defined as integer
DCL VAR(&PWDLEN) TYPE(*INT) LEN(4) VALUE(10)
DCL VAR(&PWDCCSID) TYPE(*INT) LEN(4) VALUE(-1)


Does this make sense to anybody?
