Hi Charles,
Had you been using CALLP, moving a given module to a *SRVPGM would
simply be a matter of recreating the program that was making use of
it, no other code changes needed. (Well you might add an h-spec with
the binding directory )
I certainly agree that CALLP (or EVAL or free format, or any of the
myriad other ways to use a prototype) is a better choice, but...
I don't understand why you think CALLP would be easier to transition to
the srvpgm than CALLB is. Why couldn't he re-create the code (leaving
the CALLB) and get the exact same result?
I mean... the binding part is exactly the same whether you use CALLB or
a prototype. The advantage to the prototypes come from additional
capabilities, better syntax checking, etc. But that's all done at
compile time. The binding part is exactly the same, so referencing a
binding directory to call a *SRVPGM instead of a *MODULE is exactly the
same with CALLB as it would've been with a prototype.
Why do you say that using CALLB maikes it harder?
