*ELIGIBLE is not recommended for a production environment. Can I issue
the command RCLACTGRP command on someone else's job?

Subject: Reclaiming Activation Groups.
I have a question about reclaiming an activation group on a job other
than my own.
Can it be done?
Say I have a program that I wrote that is using a named activation
group.
And then I make a change to that program during the day and I need the
users to pick up this change. The only way to do this is to reclaim the
activation group in their job. But the user doesn't have command line
access to do this, and that isn't something you want to be telling the
users to do. It isn't very user friendly. So what I'm wondering is...
Can I write a program to reclaim the activation group across all the
jobs so that when the user calls the program the next time then it will
get the right version? How do other's handle this situation.
My project structure looks like this...
OPM Program calls RPGLE Program that has a named Activation Group -->
RPGLE Pgm calls modules in a service program. --> Module in Service
Program calls RPGLE Pgm with Activation *New (recursive BOM)
If I change the recursive BOM program and recompile I don't see the
changes until I reclaim activation group of the RPGLE Pgm that is in the
Named activation group.
I hope this is clear enough.
Thanks
