RE: Named Indicators...

["Hatzenbeler, Tim" <thatzenbeler@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

        Hans,
        I have tried that in the past, but I always get a compiler error...
Am I doing something wrong?

         *RNF7451 30     80 003606  Built-in function %ADDR(*INKA) is not
defined; built-in     
                                    function is ignored.

        and the code is as follows
          79 /*****************   Map the function Keys
*****************/
          80 d InKa            s               *   inz(%addr(*inka))

          81 d  FunctionKey    ds                  Based(InKa)

          82 D    F3                           N   Overlay(FunctionKey:3) 

        Thanks, tim


        But to address your specific question, of course %ADDR(*INK)
        doesn't work, but %ADDR(*INKA) does.  You are right that you
        shouldn't assume anything about the layout of the indicators in
        storage.  The safest way is to use several scalar indicator
        fields, each based on a pointer initialized to each *INKx
        indicator you want to use.
