The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

Hi Larry -
Here's the rub - to export the getter method I would flag it as EXPORTable
and compile the module. I'd then explicitly export the getter method from
the service program object using binder language. BUT this is now available
to ANY program that binds to the utility service program. There is no way
(that I know of) that the utility service program can determine whether it
should export or not.
If you use /copy members for your procedure prototypes, you could create an
exported procedure but not include its prototype in the /copy member. Any
program or service program that wanted to use the procedure would have to
code the prototype explicitly.
That isn't an absolute answer since the prototype could be coded in any
program, but it would stop casual use of the procedure.
If you really wanted to nail it down, you could have the getter procedure
check the stack and issue a halt if the calling procedure isn't on an
approved list.
