Re: Service Programs / Binding Directories / *DUPPROC

It seemed to me that there were two ways to solve this problem:

1. Take the Service Program out of the binding directory while you
re-create it, then put it back.
2. Specify Option(*DupProc) on the Create Command.

I always chose the latter of these, but neither seems ideal.

Am I missing something obvious? Has anyone got a better solution?

3) Don't use BNDDIR() for *SRVPGM creation. Use a 'make' CLP that
specifies SRVPGM() that this particular *SRVPGM requires.

4) Use one of the preprocessor utilities and do the compilation with
SRVPGM() instead of BNDDIR() that way. Alan Campin's COMPILE
http://www.think400.dk/downloads.htm and Thomas Raddatz' STRPREPRC
http://www.tools400.de/English/Freeware/Utilities/strpreprutilities.html
are two that spring to mind.
