I've encountered the same problem and i have a finding
that if you sent parm which is longer than 33 char then you have to make
sure
you've sent full parm to the called program (char with no trailing blank
character)
Only in that way we could separate the two parm with no offset one in
another.
I've tested it in simple program which got two parms one is 40 char and one
is 5 char
****************************************************************
C *ENTRY PLIST
C PARM VAR1 40
C PARM VAR2 5
C MOVE *BLANK VAR1
C MOVE 'HIIII' VAR2
C MOVEL'VAR1' VAR1
C MOVE *ON *INLR
****************** End of data ****************************************
if i called this program with
var1='123456789 '
var2='HIIII'
then in the called program it would be like this
'123456789 HIIII '
'HIIII'
the rest of the program will be error cause var1 affect var2
but (this is important)
if i called this program with :
'123456789 90'
'HIIII'
then in the called program it would be like this
'123456789 90'
'HIIII'
and it is true the two variabel parameter is separated.
you do clear on var1 and it will no effect on var2.
i suggest you split the parm into 32 char or you could manipulate your input
parm to have full character with no trailing char blank.
I don't know how but hope this finding will be useful for u.
ps:is this problem not encountered if i use callp on ILE RPG IV???
best regards,
Danny Oentung.

Subject: RPG/400 pgm strange behaviour
I have a program (RPG/400) that checks if some record exists and return.
These two filds are *ENTRY parms of the PGM:
MSDT$E - length 256
$RTC$E (*FOUND or *ERROR) - length 8A
The condition used is like this:
*IN,96 IFEQ '0'
MOVEL'*FOUND' $RTC$E
MOVELMSDTOH MSDT$E
ELSE
MOVEL'*ERROR' $RTC$E
ENDIF
It works fine, excepts for one thing: if the condition is true, when it
moves
the MSDTOH content to MSDT$E, it erases the $RTC$E field. For the other
hand,
when the first move is done, the '*Found' is placed in the 34th position of
the
field MSDT$E.
Is there any restriction about entry parms lenght ?
How can I resolve this?
Thanks
