RE: Runtime KLIST change?

[Rob Berendt <rob@xxxxxxxxx>]

Then what happens when the next person changes the action diagram and 
regenerates the code?

I think more people would be better off if they generated the AS/SET source 
into QTEMP and 
let it compile into their object library.  - lest they be led into temptation 
to go mess 
with the generated code.

If you look at asset generated RPG you will find the need to optimize.
When I see a code in the main which repeats no less than 10 times and is
not in a subr I think optimization is called for.
I wouldn't feel the need to mess with asset code if it didn't look like
someone had run over it with a lawnmower.
