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

I'm curious where in the V5R4 documentation it mentions that using %addr() on a *NOPASS parameter is unreliable? With my testing on program subprocedures it works. Maybe with further testing it won't. Maybe it won't work with a service program procedure. The RPG documentation (reference and user guide) talks about using %addr() on an *OMIT parameter but no mention of results on a *NOPASS parameter.


It says "If the unpassed parameter is accessed in the called program or procedure, unpredictable results will occur."

You're right that it doesn't specifically mention %addr, but I think that falls under the general category of "access".
