Yeah, I do that all the time. I used BASED(@) for all

structures that

are used only as reference.

Joe

James,

If a pointer is specified in a BASED keyword and it's not

explicitly

defined elsewhere, the RPG compiler implicitly defines it.

Given the name, my guess is that whoever wrote this code

probably has

a number of structures etc. defined as Based(StructureTemplate) -
basically, it's a placeholder, that's never used.

I'm finally working on a V4-compilable version of Scott Klement's
SMTPUTIL, and in ICONV_H, I find a D-spec for "iconv_t" with the
keyword clause "BASED(StructureTemplate)"

I don't see any basing pointer by that name anywhere (indeed, I
can't find it anywhere else in any of the source members), and I
don't see any reference to it in the V6 ILE RPG manual.
