Hi Niels
I must admit - I had never heard of that parameter on the drop function
So I did a look up
https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSGU8G_12.1.0/com.ibm.sqls.doc/ids_sqs_0715.htm

According to this page - its NOT part of the function
Am I looking at the wrong web page?

Subject: [EXTERNAL] SQL: Using restrict when dropping function and stored procedures

Hello.

What have I misunderstood regarding:

drop function xxxx *restrict;*


Why does the IBM i not complain in the following example that function a() is in use of b() and can not be dropped using the restrict keyword .. I had the impression the it was the idea of "restrict"

create function a () returns int
begin
return 1;
end;

create function b () returns int
begin
return a();
end;

drop function a restrict;

Same issue applies to procedures as well.
