Re: RPG naming of overloaded Java methods

I resorted to using SQL functions, which can be overloaded.


exec sql
set :splitlimit = CSPiValue(:limitidcat, :Split);


exec sql
set :rv = CSPiValue(:isst, :zip);


exec sql
set :wrk4pos = CSPiValue(:class4pos, :liability, :bus2nd,
:blankspace, :blankspace, :blankspace);


limitidcat = 10A
Split = 4A
isst = 2A
zip = 5S 0
class4pos = 10A
liability = 4A
bus2nd = 2A
blankspace = 1a

Since RPG does not allow for procedure overloading I'm wondering what
other solutions people have come up with.

For example, I have....

*
* iText Document Methods
*
D new_iText_Document...
D PR like(iText_Document)
D ExtProc(*JAVA
D :'com.lowagie.text.Document'
D :*CONSTRUCTOR)
D new_iText_Document_Pagesize...
D PR like(iText_Document)
D ExtProc(*JAVA
D :'com.lowagie.text.Document'
D :*CONSTRUCTOR)
D pagesize like(iText_Rectangle)
where the constructor for an new_iText_Document is overloaded. My
solution was to add the Pagesize parameter to the name.

Does anyone else have any other naming suggestions?

Thanks,
