RE: Preventing a recursive call...

I'd use an API to search the call stack to see if the RPG program is already
there.  Then you can take an appropriate action.

Hi All,

        Does anybody have a clue as to how I can prevent a recursive call
from a command?

        The scenario is.... I have a command which calls a CL(1) which calls
a CL(2) which calls an RPG... at this point it's allowed, and common, to get
to a command line, where everybody forgets that they've called the command
once already - calling the command again generates a recursive call error in
the RPG program...

        I've searched the archives and tried every combination of MONMSG's
and *PSSR's that I can come up with, yet the error prevails...

        Any ideas on how I can get the first CL(1) to end if the command is
already in effect (or running, or whatever)?

        TIA,
                Jerry
