I thought I was properly taking care of opening and closing files in my
service programs by using a globally-defined flag to record whether the
service program needed to open a given file. Then, when the service pgm
proc was invoked at end-of-job in the main program, it would close only
those files that it had opened (not any that were already open when it was
initially invoked).
Today, I was testing a program that opened a file before the service pgm
proc was initially invoked. In debug, I was surprised to see that the proc
decided that this file was NOT open, so it opened it. When I looked at my
job's open files, I saw the open file twice. And both were in the same
Activation Group (QILE).
Since I'm apparently wrong about file opens/closes in a service program,
can someone enlighten me? Thank you.
