RE: Correct use of STATIC variables

-----Message d'origine-----

[mailto:rpg400-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx] De la part de Birgitta Hauser
In this situations I use an optional parameter (simply an
indicator). If this parameter is passed, the static variables
first get initialized.
At the first call, I pass the optional parameter (with *ON)
and for all subsequent the parameter is either not passed or
passed with *OFF.

Hi Birgitta,

Does that mean you have to call all your subprocedures that contain static variables and include code in each subprocedure so that it behaves differently, ie, it initializes the variables then returns without performing its normal task?
