There is no similar concept to Binding directories with OPM programs.  One
reason that ILE came into existence was to give you the ability to create
modules and bind them together (the Link-Edit process that many platforms
use for creating executables), along with the ability to use procedures and
service programs, etc.  The static binding help improve the performance when
programs/procedures are being called.

In RPG400 (OPM) programs, all linkage between programs is dynamic, and
parameter passing gets resolved during the initial call to any sub-programs
being called.
