RE: /FREE RPG compiler errors

"Free-format is buggy" sounds like the same person that told me to use his
date program that passed 10 parameters to check a date when he saw me using
Test(de).  "Test(de) isn't tried and true" he told me.  And that was that.

Subject: /FREE RPG compiler errors


Hi all

I have a situation at work where I'm trying to determine if there is a
severe
impact going to free-format RPG.  There are a couple of issues:

1.  I have people who are very "anti" that continue to state that
"free-format
RPG" is buggy.  I cannot get any specifics out of these folks, but it does
make
me wonder a bit-- has anyone on this list encountered any compiler bugs
using
free-format RPG?

2.  Has any shop whole-heartedly embraced using RPG Free?  If so, how large
was
the hill you had to climb?  Also, how did the staff take the news that they
were going to use this "new" stuff.

Thanks!

-Doc
