Re: SQLRPGLE issue with CONST and %addr()

Hello Matt,

You wrote:
>My question is why does SQLRPGLE act differently that RPGLE in this case?

It shouldn't compile in either case.  The reason the compiler complains is
because CONST says the variable cannot be changed but if you have a pointer
to the variable (via %ADDR) then you could change the contents of the
variable via the pointer therefore the compiler won't let you take the
address.

In this particular case you should use OPTIONS(*NOPASS) and check %PARMS.

Regards,
Simon Coulter.
