Re: calling RPG procedure from *SRVPGM from Cobol ILE

Jon - much appreciated...

but my nomain rpg source that contains the procedure does not even contain
the PR definition (just the PI) - are you saying to add it to the source?

I don't have to specify the PR in the cobol pgm like i would a calling rpg
pgm...

Yes.

The RPG procedure needs to be defined with ExtProc('mixedCaseName') or
alternatively name the procedure internally as mixedCaseName and add
ExtProc(*dclcase)

BUT - that will impact all existing callers of the routine because the
external name will be different. I guess you could get round it with a
mixed-case named stub that calls the upper case version.

So i am able to call an external rpg procedure from my cobol ILE pgm IF
that procedure is named in uppercase and 10 or less char's.

Anyone know who I can lift that limitation? We like to use long case
mixed procedure names in RPG and don't want to have to be restricted to
this just for cobol.

Thanks
