Re: INZ in all D-specs : Was Problem with moving Data Structures

I'd expect that initial values are only stored for reuse if the associated variable is the target of a RESET. For simple INZ(value) stuff I'd expect that code is generated to set the value either at *INIT for the main program or during procedure invocation. However, I don't actually KNOW the mechanism used by the compiler. That's a question for Barbara.


100%.

Some initializations are handled by the equivalent of EVAL statements in *INIT or subprocedures; and some are handled by the equivalent of INZ, to be done by the system when the (srv)pgm is first invoked in the activation group.
