We are going to have the situation of an OPM program calling a series of ILE
programs.  The ILE programs are compiled with an activation group of
*caller, and all is well.  The only problem we have is that there are files
opened in service programs that are not be closed when the OPM program is
exited.

We've come up with three options of handling this:

1.  Have the OPM program execute a shut down routine that would close all
files that have been opened.  The problem with this is, how do you know what
files have been opened, unless you know all of the details of each file that
was opened when a service program was called.

2.  Use a named activation group when calling the ILE programs, and have the
OPM program reclaim the activation group at the end of the process.

3.  Leave the files open.  What issues are we going to have to deal with if
we do this?

Thanks for any and all input!
