Re: CL arithmetic -- conclusion

["James W. Kilgore" <qappdsn@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Joe,

I've thought the same thing myself.  Under the ILE concept, it would be nice use
RTVxxx command within RPG. My first thought might be a CL calc spec ....  whoa,
wait a minute, did I say ILE?

You bet I did.  Let me ask this: is there an ILE CMD?

I don't think so, but those CMD members do call some sort of program.  Now if 
that
program (RPG/CL/PLI/C)  is an ILE module why couldn't you call, from RPG, what 
the
command calls?

Now I haven't done this, but if one did a DSPCMD of OVRDBF to find out what the 
CPP
was, why not call the CPP from your RPG program and not worry about doing 
command
calls?

Just a thought.
