Re: Indicating Total Time in Free Form when using RPG Cycle - Solved

FREE still uses the cycle, so far as I know. It is us programmers who have added in the redundant code of the DOW not %EOF loop. Take out that loop, and so far as I know, you are back to the original RPG cycle.

Setting on the L1-L9 indicators is usually done in the I specs, I believe? In which case it is probably easier to finish converting the old code and do your L1 calculations within the Calc specs and use named indicators and/or conditioned sub routines in place of L1-L9.

If the issue is L0 then my understanding is that L0 is always on and therefore not relevant to solving any practical programing problems.

Well, Jeff, you COULD just write your own level-break processing and
keep it all in /free - I'm almost kidding, it's not the hardest thing in
the world to do.

Thank to everyone that responded.
It appears that (as I presumed) in order to implement this, I indeed must
break out of /free mode to set a CLx spec to indicate the start of RPG
Cycle Total Time processing. After this statement, I can resume /free mode
for all other logic and it will be part of the total cycle.

Thanks again.
