Re: Programs doing "European-style" output

For the archive:

I had neglected to put an H spec in these two programs so the compiler found an old data area (RPGLEHSPEC) in *LIBL and used the data in it.


Note to self - remove RPGLEHSPEC.

Note to self - always put an H-spec, if only for the copyright statement.


Reference - ILE RPG Language Reference manual, chapter 12, page 253.

Here's a strange one. I have two programs (free-format RPG IV using O-specs) that are outputting "." decimal point date separators (edit code Y) and "," commas for decimal points in output numbers (edit codes 1 & J). They are new programs so this is the first time I've run them.

I'm in the U.S. and have never had this happen before. Where do I check (compile listing, system value, etc.) to see if a "European" switch/flag/setting has been turned on? At this point, I'm not sure if it's happening to any other programs.
