Re: Help in Call Stack Entires.

[Scott Klement <rpg400-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

If you look further over to the right-hand side of this call stack, you 
should see ILE program and module names as well, which might help make it 
easier to understand.

The idea of a call stack is that each time a program or procedure calls 
another program or procedure, the new one gets added to the stack.  When a 
program or procedure finishes, it gets removed from the stack.

This includes routines in the operating system that get called as a result 
of you performing an opcode or BIF as well as program or procedure calls 
that you've made explicitly in your program.

So in the example you've provided, a program called XRPG124 (which is NOT 
ILE, unless you've left part of the call stack out!) is calling a program 
called QCMDEXC.  As you may know, QCMDEXC is an API that allows you to 
submit a command string to be interpreted and run.  QCMDEXC calls XCL127, 
which appears to be an OPM CL program.  That program must run a SEQUEL 
command of some sort.  QCATRS is the operating system program that calls 
(among other things) validity checking programs (VCP).  Based on the name, 
I'm guessing the SEQUEL has a validity checking program named EXECHKR. 
EXECHKR then calls another program (this one is ILE) named SQLSERVERV.

__QRNP_PEP_SQLSERVERV is the "Program Entry Procedure" for SQLSERVERV. 
This is not a procedure that a programmer wrote, but rather one that's 
generated by the ILE program creation tools to give the program a place to 
start processing.

Apparently, this PEP also calls an operating system routine called "Q LE 
leActivationInit", which in turn calls "Q LE leActivationInitRouter", etc.

Why do you ask this?  Are you having trouble with these programs?
