Eric;
I don't have access to the underlying method code, so I can't change the interface.
The underlying code is part of, what they call a web service, WebLogic GLUE interface. The group that "supports" it knows little more about it than I do.

Subject: RE: %SubArr Fails to pass a sub-array to Java method
Seems like you should just pass the whole array, along with a parameter to indicate how many elements in the array are initialized. Your java program should only access array elements known to contain valid values.
Is there some reason passing the whole array and an upper boundary would not work for you?

Subject: %SubArr Fails to pass a sub-array to Java method
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:
http://code.midrange.com/80cabeb44f.html
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
