I appreciate your joke, but there is a valid reason to be writing
legacy-style code, at least in our shop, since the JDE CASE tool generates
only RPG/400 source.

It may be "valid" in your shop - but doesn't it sadden you to be paying maintenance fees to a software company that are too lazy/greedy/ uncaring/whatever to make the trivial updates needed to the tool to at least have it generate RPG IV?

For goodness sake the damn thing could run the generated code through CVTRPGSRC _before_ it showed it to you if they gave a rats posterior about the future of their customers!

Not that I feel strongly about ISVs that force their customers to live in the past you understand ...
