Re: message subfile not working in service program

We are doing this by passing into the service program the name of the
program calling it. That way the service program uses the other programs
message queue and not it's own. Just setup another procedure and pass in
the program name into the spgmq field of the service program.

I am not sure why changing the length makes a difference.

message subfile not working in service program

I'm attempting to use message subfile on a service program for the first
time and am having problem with it.

On the DSPF file, I have the SFLPGMQ(10) keyword on both the message
subfile and control record formats. In a regular RPG ILE program, I
usually set the value of SFLPGMQ(10) as the program name and use send
program message api to send messages that I want to display to the
Program Message Queue. This method works fine in regular ILE RPG
program.

I attempted the same think on a service program and I'm getting a
CPF2479 error. This problem goes a way if I change the SFLPGMQ(10) to
SFLPGMQ(276) and place the value of the procedure name as the value of
SFLPGMQ(276). Just curious as why using the service program name as
value SFLPGMQ(10) won't work on service program.

thanks
