Re: Question about prototyping

Well I can send you my single copybook, which does this, as outlined above.
Would that help? Not *much* better than a subroutine, but it does
encapsulate things, so you don't need all those global variables and API
definitions etc. I have an equivalent copybook to receive messages and also
one to clear the message queue (useful to call immediately after an EXFMT).

We have an old subroutine to do basically the same thing (SNDPGMMSG),
which we copy in to programs. I've thought about rewriting as a
procedure in a service program before, but the "what program sent this
message" problem stopped me. I suspect that there is some way to make
it work as a procedure in a service program, but I haven't been
motivated enough to find out.
