Can somebody suggest the best way to pass a *varsize parameter to a
*varsize parameter of another procedure with losing the original length
of the variable?
If it is a character variable, consider using a VARYING character
instead. That way the length is always available to whichever procedure
needs it.
Note that this can cause a bit of pain for calling from languages that
don't fully support VARYING character as a type (CL for instance), but
it's not that hard to create utility procedure to build VARYING
character strings from other string formats.
