Sorry, he said procedures and I was thinking CALLPRC.

This is not CALLPRC - this is CALLSUBR.

Yes you can pass parameters to a procedure in an rpg or c module. You can

Rob,

At V5R4 in CL you use the CALLSUBR command. You can have a value
returned
from the subroutine/subprocedure but you cannot pass parameters to it.
Variables are all defined globally. You cannot define variables within
the
subroutine/subprocedure.

You can have 256 subroutines. I tend to place them at the end of the
program.

DCL my stuff
Run the commands
o Any errors go to error handling.
o No errors then return
Error handling
o Handle error
o Return
Subroutines.

Each subroutine starts with SUBR SUBR(yourname) and ends with ENDSUBR.
You can exit the subroutine with RTNSUBR RTNVAL(yourvalue).

HTH.

Subject: Coding procedures in CL

I know that I can call a procedure or subprocedure from CL with CALLSUBR.
Can I write a subprocedure in CL? One that accepts multiple input
parameters and returns one output parameter? If so, how?
