I know when it comes to Naming everyone has their own method, good or bad. But I was curious if anyone had any standards for naming their global variables. I prefix mine with G@ which I don't particularly like sometimes, but I do want the variable name to be noticeably different when someone is in a procedure so they know the variable is global. One common example of when I do this is for an RRN field. Also, for those of you who do prefix global variables, do you use that prefix when the variable is only ever used in an entry module's mainline code?
prefix with a lowercase "g". I would challenge the use of 99% of globals however. parms and control block type structs passed by ref are better. Other than RRN and *IN what else does RPG force to be used globally? ( just because RPG allows pgm main variables to be used globally doesnt mean you should use them that way! ) -Steve
