Hi,

I like to know the advantages/disadvantages of creating a Bound RPGLE program or two step (Module and PGM) when there is a CALLB for a module which is in a Service program. The Service program is added to a Binding directory.

I have created the object by using option '14' from WRKMBRPDM by assigning a named Activation group and the name of the Binding directory, where the Service program is defined. This way I have generated only one object.

My colleague advises me to create the program as a Module first, and then use option '26' to create the program from WRKOBJPDM. Instead of specifying the Binding directory, the Service program name is to be specified in the create prompt.

I am not sure whether both the processes serve the same purpose or specifying the Service program has advantages over the Binding directory.

Your comments are appreciated.

Robert
