Re: declaring a file local to a sub-procedure

What's your OS level? I don't think that what you are doing is available
until V6R1

I have been attempting to declare a file local to a sub-procedure just to

see how it operates, etc.

However, I am having a problem getting this to compile. The compiler
keeps throwing errors from:


*RNF2580 30 1 The File Designation entry is not valid for a file
defined
in a subprocedure; the specification is ignored.

to

*RNF0258 30 1 Form-Type entry is not valid for subprocedures, or is
out of
sequence.


Here is the two ways I have coded the declaration so if I am doing
something wrong, please feel free to point it out:


METHOD A
0170.00 PCalcCII b Export
0171.00 D PI 2 0
0171.01 dwItem 7 0
0172.00 dwType 1a
0173.00
0173.01 FIoritemm ip e k disk
0173.02 DGetCustRec DS LikeRec(Ioritem1)
0174.00 DzCnt s 2 0

METHOD B - which I got from
http://www.mcpressonline.com/programming/rpg/v6r1-rpg-enhancements.html

0170.00 PCalcCII b Export
0170.01 FIoritemm ip e k disk
0171.00 D PI 2 0
0171.01 dwItem 7 0
0172.00 dwType 1a
0173.00
0173.02 DGetCustRec DS LikeRec(Ioritem1)
0174.00 DzCnt s 2 0

It does not like the F spec or so it seems......

Suggestions?
