Last but not least, do you have the CONST or VALUE keywords on the
prototype and procedure interface
that you are not showing?

Yes, the CONST keyword is on the parameter :
D IMyVar 9 2 CONST

I thought that VALUE would let me compile, but CONST would protect me.






Hi,

I thought that prototyping protected me from this type of
error, but it seems i was wrong.

* MyVar declared like data dictionary standard.
D gMyVar S LIKE ( DEF_MyVar )

MyProc ( gMyVar )


* Prototype for MyProc.
D MyProc PR N
D IMyVar 9 2

I declared gMyVar using our standard without closely looking
at MyProc's prototype definition.
Unit tests went OK. As this was a calcul of customer
subscription fees, I did a test on all customers, eventually
I got a MCH1210 zone receptor too small.
Using STRSRVJOB and STRDBG, I was unable to step into MyProc,
I know not why.
I found that the attributs of gMyVar were 9P0. I thought that
the compiler would have picked this up? How should I avoid
this kind of error ( without modifying the hard coded
definition, of course )?

Thanks.
