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.

In my experience, although prototypes are no longer required for
internal procedures, the compiler still requires a prototype for external
stored procedures or it gives a compile-time error that the procedure is
undefined.
That's true of a module that is calling a procedure in another module.
But a prototype isn't required within the module that is exporting the
procedure.
Thomas, the reason that the compiler doesn't require a prototype is that
it the procedure may not ever be called from another RPG module.
It wouldn't be possible for the compiler to change its rules and start
requiring a prototype for exported procedures. But you could open an RFE
to request an H spec option to require prototypes for programs and
exported procedures.
