RE: Procedure overloading

["Dennis Lovelady" <iseries@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We did discuss it a few weeks ago, but it has not been added, as far as I
know.

You can sort of achieve the same effect by using multiple procedure
declarations (PR) with the same extProc() specification.  But each of those
has to have a different name.

D procDef1        PR                  ExtProc('myProc')
D  myFlag                       10I 0 Value
D  stringParm                65535    Value
D  numParm                      10I 0 Value            

D procDef2        PR                  ExtProc('myProc')
D  myFlag                       10I 0 Value
D  numParm1                     20I 0 Value
D  numParm2                     10I 0 value
