AW: comprehensive info for ile rpg

["HauserSSS" <Hauser@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

instead of defining an internally described data structure, you also can
create a DDS described physical file for the SDS and embedd it as external
data structure. In this way you won't need a copy member. An external
datastructure can be qualified or you can use the prefix keyword to rename
the original fields if you want.

Mit freundlichen Gru?en / Best regards

And I would also suggest putting the SDS itself into a separate source
member and bringing it in as a copy book for maintenance purposes.

Jim,

Here's a tip - put this into a copybook called e.g. PGMSDS:
      /IF NOT DEFINED(PGMSDS)
      /DEFINE PGMSDS
      *
      * Program Status Data Structure
      *
     D PgmSDS         SDS
     D  PSDSMainProc                 10A

     D  PSDSCmpTime                   6S 0
     D   PSDSCmpTimeC                 6A   Overlay(PSDSCmpTime)

     D  PSDSOwnMod                   10A
     D                               76A
     D  PSDSSrcID                     5I 0

     D  PSDSUsrPrf                   10A
     D                               62A
      /ENDIF

and then include in all your programs as e.g.:

     /COPY QRPGLESRC,PGMSDS

Much easier than defining specific fields in your programs.

HTH,

Rory
