RE: Overlaying a DS over an entry parm

Yea, the caller owns the storage for the parm, so it's a bit different from
declaring something in "this" program.
If you're on V5R1 or later us the LIKEDS keyword to declare the parms and
things should work the way you want.

     D SRCXFER         PR
     D  SrcFile                            LikeDS(QualName)
     D SRCXFER         PI
     D  SrcFile                            LikeDS(QualName)

     D QualName        DS                  Based(ptr_templ_t)
     D                                     Qualified
     D  ObjName                      10A

     D  LibName                      10A


     C                   if        srcFile.ObjName = 'CUSTMAST'
     C                             or srcFile.LibName = '*LIBL'
     C
