JT - CV=Curricula Vita or Resume...

Joe - YES - they assume you don't do a reclaim of activation group - but
Green Screen doing a reclaim while HTTP server is active is drastic...
don't remember what happens - but it's UGLY...

        I haven't read but a few posts, so this may have already been
mentioned.
        What I've been toying is the following:

        I use a variable to establish if this is a "first-time" run.  So
I code my
        own initial subroutine, rather than use *INZSR.  In this
routine, I reset
        any variables that would normally be initialized.

        When I want to emulate an exit with *INLR, but leave the
activation group
        active, I set my "first-time" variable back to "Y" (or blank or
some such).
        Seems to work OK, but I'm not wiz at ILE, by any stretch...

        jt


        BTW, I don't know what "CV" means, either...

        |
        | I'm not arguing the point, but with a named activation group I
lose the
        | automatic cleanup of subprocedures which was my primary reason
        | for going to
        | *NEW in the first place.  The second time I invoke a program
in a named
        | activation group, all its subprograms will still be hanging
around.  That
        | is, of course, unless I do a RCLACTGRP on the named activation
group, but
        | I'm betting the 30% speed increase only works when you don't
do a reclaim.
        | Or did the little chart explicitly contradict that assumption?
        |
