A method that does not return anything works the same way (from RPG's
perspective) as a subprocedure that doesn't return anything.

You don't put a return value on the prototype.
You call it with CALLP (which can be omitted in /FREE)

If it's STATIC (which has nothing to do with whether it returns something
or not!) then you put the STATIC RPG keyword on the prototype (on the PR
line, not on the parameters)

With STATIC, you don't have to pass an object as the first parm, since
static methods can't be instantiated.
