Re: ILE CL calling RPG procedure help.

["John Taylor" <john.taylor@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Scott,

I haven't run across this necessity for uppercase names on CALLPRC. The
following example (from a real pgm) compiles fine and resolves to the
correct procedure:

    CallPrc    WrkwSlsOrd

As you've stated, the RPG compiler will export the proc name in capitalized
form, so I suspect that the CLLE compiler is forcing everything to uppercase
on our behalf. This works at least as far back as V4R2.
