Re: Equivalent to RPGLE %PARMS in CL

Alan,

There's no direct equivalent. However, you can use the MI
_NPM_PARMLIST builtin with V5R4 pointers and integer fields. In this

(http://archive.midrange.com/rpg400-l/200702/msg00446.html) Scott refers

a thread he and I contributed to about this. Although the referenced

(on the SystemiNetwork forums) is RPG-related, you could transfer it to

CL I guess.

The other (simpler) option would be to reference each parameter in an
'initialization' subroutine and check for the MCH error which is sent if

parameter wasn't passed.

Morning all
I have been asked the following question.
We are presently on V5r4.
Within RPG ILE, we have the bif %PARMS to see the number of parameters
passed to that program.
The question I have been asked is,
Does CL (or CL ILE) have an equivalent? If so, what and/or how can this

achieved?
Thanks in advance
