RE: Program won't let go of QRPLOBJ

My guess, and this is a guess, is that once the activation group is started
and a program within that activation group is started that program remains
in memory until you end the activation group. The activation group and the
resources that belong to it stay active until you RCLACTGRP. This is my
understanding.

I'd like to be able to understand :

In the calling program I indicated a new program to be called and an attempt
to call that program was made. I then changed the name of the program to be
called back. Why wasn't the new version of the program called?

It sounds as if you have answered your own question.
It appears that you need to end the activation group.

Hi,

While testing an interactive application, a program crashed.
I used STRSRVJOB in another session to find the problem. I
fixed the program and recompiled, but now the application
runs the program that is in QRPLOBJ.It is running in a named
ACTGRP. If I reply G to the message when the program crashes,
I can end it normally and exit to my starting menu. At this
point, I am in the DAG.

I debugged the calling program : this does a CALL MYPGM. I
changed the value of MYPGM so that it would not find the
program to call. It crashed, and I changed the value of
MYPGM back to the original value hoping it would now find the
program that I just fixed. However the program still crashes
with the same orginal problem. DSPJOB shows that the old
version of the program in QRPLOBJ is still running. The debug
screen shows the QRPLOBJ version of the program but the new source.

Returning to my menu in the DAG, I deleted the named ACTGRP
to get the new version of the program to run. Which I didn't
want to have to do. How could I have got the app to use my
new version of the program?

Thanks.
