Does your trigger program include a return? If not, you probably are using
the good old rpg cycle.

Subject: Trigger problem



Hi all,

Firstly, could anyone direct me to any meaningful help regarding triggers
(I'm
having a hassle trying to find help in v4r4 softcopy library).

Now the problem . . .
I have a trigger set *AFTER *INSERT and when another pgm writes a record to
the
pf, control is passed over to the trigger program and it seems to continue
to
write the same record over & over. We're at OS v4r4 and I noticed two extra
parms on the CL cmd ADDPFTRG pertaining to threading behaviour but I don't
think
my problem relates to these.

Any help would be appreciated.


On a lighter note, I was chatting to a person last Friday and he asked me
what I
did for a living. Given the recent subject matter on "IBM's re-branding", I
thought this was the perfect opportunity to use the new name so I answered
"I'm
a programmer on the iSeries400 platform". . . He looked at me dumfounded and
with his face screwed up asked "what's that". This, I thought, was to be
expected seeing that it was only announced last week. Problem is, I used to
get
the same answer from the public at large when I told them I was a programmer
on
the AS/400 platform !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I suppose we'll see, in time, whether the re-branding/renaming is going to
make
it easier for me to explain what it is I do.


Regards
John.
