RE: Recursive calls in RPG ILE

["Holden Tommy" <Tommy.Holden@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Here's a simple test program I fiddled with to aquaint myself with RPG
recursion in case anyone wants to see what it's like...

     h dftactgrp(*no) actgrp('RECURSIVE') option(*nodebugio)
     d proc1           pr              n
     d  status                        1a   Const
     d DoNumber        s              5i 0 Inz(10)
     d Flag            s               n
      /free
         Flag = proc1('Y');
         *inlr=*On;
         return;
      /end-free
     pproc1            B
     d proc1           pi              n
     d  status                        1a   Const
     d i               s              5i 0 Static
      /free
       Select;
        When i <> DoNumber;
          i += 1;
           If Status ='Y';
             Flag = proc1('N');
           Else;
             Flag = proc1('Y');
           EndIf;
        EndSl;

        Return Flag;
      /end-free
     pproc1            E        


Thanks,
Tommy Holden

It's not a problem with procedures.
