Re: %SubArr Fails to pass a sub-array to Java method

I don't know if you have access to the Java code, but you might want to look
at using a Set or List instead of an array. Just create a procedure to
return the Set or List based on the RPG array.

I will say, I've never used any of the Collections Framework objects in RPG,
but I would imagine it would work.

I have already submitted a PMR for this, and there is supposed to be an
APAR for this problem but at the moment there is no target date.

The problem is that I am passing several arrays of Java string objects and
integers to a method. The %SubArr bif works correctly if I hard code a
literal as the third parameter, only the specified number of elements of the
arrays are passed to the method, but if a variable is use as the third
parameter the whole array is passed no mater what the variable value is.

The method prototype and the method calls are here:

What I need is a work around so that the called method receives only the
initialized array elements. I would think I could create another Java method
and pass it the count of initialized elements and the arrays, do an
equivalent of SubArr in java and then call the original method but I have
not had much success finding what I think I need.

If anyone has any ideas on how to code a "SubArr" java method interface or
another possibility to work around this I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks
