Re: Calling similiar (overloaded) procedure that has *nopass *omit in the parameter

It depends.

What does proc2 need to know about the parameters? Can proc1 pass default values for them? Or does proc2 actually need to know whether they were passed? Does proc2 need to know the difference between omitted parameters, and unpassed parameters?

Assuming that proc1 is an overloaded procedure of proc2. Proc1 contains no
business logic. All it does is converting the parm1 into alpha and calls
proc2. As you can see, both parameter 2& 3 in proc1& proc2 are *nopass
and *omit type parameters. Can someone give me a pointer on best approach
on calling proc2 from proc1?

D proc1 pr
D parm1 10p 0
D parm2 10 options(*nopass :*omit) const
D parm3 10 options(*nopass :*omit) const

D proc2 pr
D parm1 10
D parm2 10 options(*nopass :*omit) const
D parm3 10 options(*nopass :*omit) const
