Re: Can an RPG module call another RPG module?

[MWalter@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Dan,

Modules themselves cannot be executed therefore you must bind all of the
modules you wish to call into a program or service program.

At least one of your modules must have mainline code. That is your Program
Entry Procedure that is specified on the CRTPGM command.

Here is a simplistic example:

Mod1

     C                   callb     Mod2
     C                   callb     mod3
     C                   return

Mod2
     Hnomain
     C     'MODULE2'     dsply

Mod3
     Hnomain
     c     'MODULE3'     dsply

Add three above code snipits into 3 separate source members.
Compile them using the CRTRPGMOD command or Option 15 from PDM.

Then issue the command CRTPGM PGM(mylib/pgm1) module(mylib/mod1 mylib/mod2
mylib/mod3) ENTMOD(mylib/mod1)

The Call pgm1

Hope this helps,


Mark

If so, how do you create the program?  Are there special
considerations?

TIA, Dan
