RE: Preventing a recursive call...

convert your pgms to ILE, and compile CL(1) with activation group (*new), 
and the other pgms (CL-2 and RPGs) with activation group (*caller).

Stick something out there in your environment that gets checked first
like:

The existence of a dtaara in QTEMP

Value of contents in dtaara in QTEMP 


Etc....

Then in your code

If exists send message instead of calling program (avoiding the
recursive call)

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
