Hi to allprograms
Some years ago all ours programs ran in the DAG.
In the past two years we "introduced" Activation Group in some
(some in named AG, other in temporary ones).Group
We made this for various reason (avoid recursion, improve performance,
etc.).
Unfortunately (or better... by ignorance...) we made this operation
without having well understood Activation Groups.
Now I'm trying to do spring cleaning...
In all (or almost) technical articles and forum I read, I found the
advice
to avoid running ILE programs in the DAG.
So we modified our programs to run all of them in Named Activation
(or Temporary) and not in the DAG.ours
None of our programs are compilated with DFTACTGRP(*YES)!!
So I simply replaced *CALLER with Named-one in the ACTGRP option of
"starting program" (the first program in the call stack of ours job).problem
I found lots of advantages... but this operation introduced some
with OVRDBF scoping.with
To avoid this problem I changed the OVRDBF (and OVRPRTF and DLTOVR)
scoping problem.list
A make an OVRPRTF and calls B
B calls C
C is in a different AG and isn't affected by OVRPRTF. But I want it.
OVRPRTF OVRSCOPE(*CALLLVL) was my solution..
Now my MAIN question is...
Compiling all my existing program in a proper Activation Group (not in
the
DAG), how many other problem can produce?
For example I found some difference in "free resources".
The RCLRSC LVL(*CALLER) used in the DAG can't be "replaced" with a
similar
command in a Named AG...
I have to close the Activation Group... Right?
Any help or observation would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Stefano
