Re: ILE RPG recursion.

Hi, Rob:

AFAIK, ILE RPG IV supports recursive procedures, but not recursive (main) programs.

Depending on exactly what it is you are trying to do, you could, for example, create a *SRVPGM with the procedure, and then call it from e.g. a CLLE program via CALLPRC, and then it can call itself recursively.

HTH,

Mark S. Waterbury

Changing the PR by adding EXTPGM('MYPGM') prevents the compile with
RNF7545: The main procedure cannot be called from this module when it is
an external program call.

How do I work around this?
