RE: FW: IBM's RPG Strategy (was: Long Procedure Names)

Steve,

Here's the example out of the manual:
class MyClass
{
  static
  {
    System.loadLibrary ("MYSRVPGM");
  }
  native boolean checkCust (byte custName[]);
  void anotherMethod ()
  {
    boolean found;
    // call the native method
    found = checkCust (str.getBytes());
  }
}

     
     H nomain
     
     Frec       IF   E           K DISK
     
     D checkCust       PR              N   EXTPROC(*JAVA:'MyClass':'checkCust')
     D  custName                    100A   VARYING CONST
     
     P checkCust       B                   EXPORT
     D checkCust       PI              N
     D  custName                    100A   VARYING CONST
      /free 
        chain custName rec;
        return %found;
      /end-free
     P checkCust       E
