Re: MAIN Keyword and Error Message Subfiles

I dealt with all of this by passing the Program name, module name and
procedure name to the a service program I wrote called XVMSGF that sends
messages to the program message queue.

If you go to www.think400.dk/downloads.htm and look for Trigger Mediator and
download the package you will find source code in their for a screen called
TG0001 and modules that uses the XVMSGF service program so you can see
examples of how I dealt with the issues.

I have been using procedures and error message subfiles for quite awhile
now and haven’t had any issues with getting my messages to display. I
recently tried using the MAIN keyword on the H-spec and defining my mainline
as a procedure. That is working fine, but I can’t get my error message
subfile to display my messages. I have put the program in debug to make
sure that my error is getting triggered correctly. The error message is
coming from a procedure 3 levels into the call stack of the program.
Previously, I simply sent the message to the message queue of the program,
but that doesn’t work with the MAIN keyword. I get an error telling me that
the name is not found in the call stack. I have changed the SFLPGMQ length
in my DSPF to 276 and tried loading the MAIN procedure name into it, as well
as the name of the procedure sending the message. Neither have worked. The
message gets sent, but it will not display on the screen.
Has anyone else encountered this issue? And if so, how didn’t you
correct it?
