Re: commenting sub procedures -- RPG400-L

× The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.

IMHO, you need them in both places....

Comments with the prototype should provide a basic description and how
to use it.

Echo that at the procedure and add any additional information helpful
to the maintainer.

Hi,

Where do you all put your comments on your sub-procedures? In the
prototype, or in the procedure itself? Ours have always been in the
prototype, which I have never liked as they are too far away from the
code. We haven't yet got V7.1 but given that the internal procedure
prototypes become unnecessary, it seems like comments should not be
placed in the prototype.
