Re: Correct use of STATIC variables

David,

RCLRSC does not affect static storage of ILE programs (<
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v6r1m0/index.jsp?topic=/cl/rclrsc.htm
).

If you have declared variables STATIC, then you must have a reason to do
so and thus should know when the scope of your variable ends. If the
static storage belongs to a program, you might consider initialising on
entering the program if you want the scope to be the call level.

What is the normal manner to initialize such variables between
program calls? Without using activation group *NEW. Currently, it
seems we are relying on a CLP that issues a RCLRSC.

Thanks.
