I have a package I'm testing out that converts RPG II and III code to RPG IV. It said that it could convert the subroutines to procedures but I ran into a problem when it was handling the *INZSR. It defined the fields used in key list FFILE IF E K DISK d SOMETHING1 10 A d SOMETHING2 10 A It prototyped it. d INZSR pr c CALLP INZSR c KEY1 CHAIN FILE c If %FOUND c 'Do some stuff c Endif c Eval *inlr = *on And it created procedure with procedure interface. p INZSR b d INZSR pi c KEY1 KLIST c KFLD SOMETHING1 c KFLD SOMETHING2 c Eval SOMETHING1 = SOMETHINGA c Eval SOMETHING2 = SOMETHINGB p INZSR e But on compile it does not reconize KEY1 gets RNF7030 and of course chain got RNF7080. Can someone explain why? I would not have used KLIST in C spec if I had written from scratch I would have put in D SPEC so it would have been define at compile time to main part of program. But I'm still learning so I want to know why this fails in tech terms not my redneck way of thinking ( "because you defined KEY1 in the subprocedure which means it is locally defined to it and not the main part of program").
