I don't know how the DSPPGM option correlates to the RPG III vs RPG IV options, so I won't try to comment on it. :)
Also, FWIW, the defaults for CRTBNDRPG include TRUNCNBR(*YES) & FIXNBR(*NONE), so does this "match" the default behavior of CRTRPGPGM's defaults?
TRUNCNBR(*YES) (the default) means that the ADD, MULT, SUB, DIV, etc operations work like they do in RPG III. When you have overflow, the leftmost digits are truncated.
If you changed it to TRUNCNBR(*NO) ADD, MULT, SUB, etc would act more like EVAL does.
Surprise, surprise! RPG-III: C MOVE *BLANKS NUMBER 50 Compiles fine, RUNS FINE! The dump shows: NUMBER 001176 PACKED(5,0) 0 RPG-IV: Compiles fine, RUNS FINE! The dump shows: NUMBER PACKED(5,0) 00000. '00000F'X
Okay, so it _does_ compile (I wasn't 100% sure, thanks for clarifying). But, I was correct that it behaves the same way in both languages.
