RE: Passing Parms Between RPG programs using Pointer

["Bob Cozzi" <cozzi@xxxxxxxxx>]

Passing data via pointers is not faster than passing a parameter. Parameters
are passed as a pointer internally anyway, so switching to a pointer buys
you nothing.

Subject: Passing Parms Between RPG programs using Pointer


I wrote an RPG program to list members of a database file using API's. I
have the results of the API loading into an array.

I would like to be able to pass the results of this program to any other
program that may need it. I know that passing information via pointers if
faster, but I'm not sure how to do this.

Any suggestions.

Thanks.

Nick L.
