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.

Hello,
When I'm in debug and eval the pointer of the multi occurrence DS and
occurrence one and get different pointer value (see below). Is this
normal?
EVAL %ADDR(MCRADD)
%ADDR(MCRADD) = SPP:CFFC819861042450
EVAL %ADDR(MCRADD(1))
%ADDR(MCRADD(1)) = SPP:CFFC819861041F50
The %occur() BIF or the OCCUR op-code can be used to set the ocurrance of
a MODS. When the occurence is set to 1, the addresses should be the same.
When the occurrence is set to 2, then %ADDR(MCRADD) shoudl equal
%ADDR(MCRADD(2)). When the occurence is set to 3, then %ADDR(MCRADD)
should match %ADDR(MCRADD(3)) and so on...
If you're passing the data to a subprocedure by pointer, make sure you set
the occurrence to 1 before getting the address that you pass.
A much better alternative is to use data structure arrays INSTEAD OF
multiple occurence data structures. Then you can declare the array on the
prototype (instead of a pointer) so that it'll always be passed correctly.
