Walter,
You may also consider to create your own heap using CEE APIs. This way
do not need to take care about to free each memory pointer, butthe
discard the complete heap. In order to make it more comfortable, you
can wrap
CEE APIs in your own RPG procedures.job.
Memory usage is almost the same as for the traditional way:
CLLE/CEE RPG/BIFs RPG/CEE
TEST_F234 TEST_F235 TEST_F236
Initial Memory Usage 12.288 12.288 12.288
Before Create Heap 12.288 n/a 12.288
After Create Heap 24.576 12.288 24.576
After Get Heap Storage 8.417.280 8.404.992 8.417.280
After Reallocate Storage 27.283.456 27.271.168 27.283.456
After Free Storage 27.283.456 27.271.168 27.283.456
After Discard Heap 12.288 n/a 12.288
Back on The Command Line 12.288 27.271.168* 12.288
Basic Heap Size: 12.288
* Size is stable regardless of how many
times the program is called.
Using the CEE APIs takes 12.288 bytes additional memory for each heap
created.
You find the details and the source code in the attached Excel file.
Last but not least, I used DSPMEMUSG to the size of the allocated heap
memory.

Thank you Barbara. That is the exact answer I was looking for.
I'll be calling the program one last time to set on LR and execute
the dealloc to free the dynamic storage, since it is an interactive

Is there an easy way "see" the heap storage currently in use for the
activation group (in my example, the default activation group)?

The RCLRSC caused the RPG program to be reinitialized on its next
call, which caused the pointers to be set to null. But the heap
storage was not released.
This situation, where you lose the ability to free the storage, is
known as a "memory leak". Nothing has a pointer to the storage so it
can't be used, but it remains allocated until the job ends.
