Re: RNF7535: varchar not compatible with options(*varsize)?

Dan,

You're passing a varying character field to a fixed length parm, as
defined in the prototype. Options(*varsize) allows you to pass differently
sized variables of the same type, in this case it would be a fixed length
field, without the compiler complaining. An easy fix would be to add Const
to the prototype. Then the compiler would adjust it for you. Or make the
parm in the prototype varying (varchar).

Just a note on the other part of the code. This statement:

inputlen = %len(%trim( DataToHash));

gets the length of the fully trimmed variable, yet you're passing an
untrimmed version:

hash( DataToHash: inputlen );

So if you have leading blanks you'll get the hash based on a value with
leading blanks, but ignoring the trailing characters, for the number of
leading blanks. You're probably looking for %TrimR() instead of %Trim().
