RE: Moving program objects from development system to working system

Igor,

I think you a mixing up service programs and modules.  If you know PC
programming, a module is an .OBJ file and a service program is a .DLL.  When
you CRTPGM ( same as running make on the PC ) you need the modules.  When
the program runs, the service program has to be present.

Subject: Moving program objects from development system to working system


Hello everybody!
I have question abouth programs created with CRTPGM comand combined from
more pgm modules or service programs. (programs are written in RPG and
os400 version is v5.2 and PDA is V5.2)

If I create program pgmABC from program modules modA, modB and service
program svpgmC on system1, what is necessary for system2 for programABC to
works fine on it? Is it enough just to place pgmABC on system2 or there is
something more to do?
I understand modularity on source level of one program but I don't
understand does RPG program compiled from many modules acts as one during
it's execution or it loads code of other modules and service programs from
their specific fixed locations.
If I'm using Qxml4PR310 service program in qsys lib to create program
xmlReader so do I have to have same service program on system2 that is
used by end users.
(one more thing - what if I 'm using prototyped C functions, do I have to
have same binding directory on system2??)



Thanks,
