Jon,

let's talk about partial solutions:
The mechanism checking prototypes against implementation of the RPG compiler:
- using an export of another module, you would have to make a declaration of the function you want to use, right?
- the compiler will check the usage of the procedure against the prototype, right?
- at bind time it's enough, that the name of your import is the same as the name of the export, right?
A full solution would check against the interface of the implementation!!! What IBM did, is a partial solution and with the changes, that no PR is needed for an exported procedure is was getting worse - or am I overloking something?

Best regards

Dieter

In general IBM has not been in favour of partial solutions to issues such as this and it is not as if the prototyping requirements are that arduous.
