Re: Exiting a sub procedure

All these consolidated, or nested, constructs are fine, but be aware that debugging will not be as much fun. To be able to step into any of these from this line, you have to use F22 in the green-screen debugger, I forget the function key in the WDSC/RDi or jt400 debugger. Result is, you will step into ALL of them - no choice - all or nothing. You can, of course, set breakpoints where you want.

So, although I'm all for terse, obfuscatory style - maintenance and troubleshooting mitigate against this - or am I just getting old?

How about this variation....

I love it!

RtnVar = Control () AND Extract () AND Calculate () AND Output();
ExSr exitProcedure;

Although this morning I wouldn't have understood it!

Subject: Exiting a sub procedure

Hello,

I'll be surprised if there's anything but NO to this question, but
I've learned on this list that if you don't ask you don't learn so
here goes anyway.

I have a subprocedure with many RETURN *OFF coded within. Now I need
to add some code in the case of it returning *OFF. I think I have to
copy this code before every RETURN *OFF. Is there anything that let's
me call another procedure on exiting this subprocedure? I just
wondered when debugging and noticing that RETURN *OFF seems to step to
the line at the end of the sub procedure.
I don't want this code done by the calling procedures as they are many
and external.

Thanks.
