RE: %subarr

Bob,

This is the complete line.
I used the middle line of the following example from the RPG ILE reference
manual. I was attempting to resize 'Dlr' from elements 1 to Idx, an integer
that had been calculated previously.

if (oldElems < dynArrInfo.current);
        %subarr(dynArr : oldElems + 1 : dynArrInfo.current - oldElems);
endif;

????

Tim

Tim, obviously the line you're trying to get help with is NOT just:
%subarr(Dlr:1:Idx);            

As this does nothing.
Why your getting the error is because there  is more than likely call to a
subprocedure on that same line for which you do not have an array defined as
the parameter value, or you don't have CONST with DIM(xx) and xx is not the
same as what %SUBARR is returning.

Subject: %subarr

I am attempting to use %subarr for the first time and need some help.

I have the following definitions:

 

D DlrDs           Ds                  Qualified     

D  Idx                                Like(A_8)     

D  Code                               Like(A_8)     

D  Type                               Like(A_7)     

D  DlrA                               Like(A_6)     

D  GrpA                               Like(A_6)     

D  Name                               Like(A_40)    

D  City                               Like(A_20)    

D  Stat                               Like(A_10)    

                                                    

D DlrBase         S               *   Inz           

                                                    

D Dlr             Ds                  Based(DlrBase)

D                                     LikeDs(DlrDs) 

D                                     Dim(2500)     

 

I create a user space, retrieve its address, and assign the address to
'DlrBase'.

 

I then read through a couple of files and fill Dlr till all (today it was
1809) records have been read.

 

I had then tried to resize Dlr to 1809 (Idx = 1809) elements with the
following /Free code:

 

%subarr(Dlr:1:Idx);            

 

And received the following compiler error:

*RNF5410 30      1 The prototype for the call is not defined.

referencing the line# with the '%subarr'

 

Is this telling me that there I do not have the prototype for '%Subarr' ?

If so, why not, considering I am at V5R3 with a PTF level of 5207 installed?

If not, how can I fix whatever it is I am doing wrong?

 

 

If I comment out the line containing the '%subarr the program compiles and
in debug show expected values.

(Dlr.Idx = 1809 (current number of records inserted) and Dlr.DlrA = the
correct value from the last record read.),

 

 

TIA
