Re: RPG IV and CF-spec "keep it IBM"

Sorry to get away from the discussion regarding free-form/positional debate
but what
does this CF spec do with the addresses? I'm assuming that you have a
procedure
named select for the calcs. Is a return value produced from this input?

<
The point that I'm arguing here (or at least attempting to) is that
the CF spec won't DETRACT from converting to RPG IV.  I'm not saying
that it will SOLVE existing problems, either.  But in my opinion, it
does make free-form expressions a little less of a burden.

For example:

CF  eval  Result = SELECT(NumDesc+1: %addr(readset): %addr(writeset):
CF                        %addr(excptset): p_timeval)
