Re: Fwd: Are there any rules to follow when naming pointer variables?

Mohammad,

What is the prototype for that parm? Are you passing it with VALUE? Are both the caller and callee using the same prototype?

Ran into some strange issue when naming *Pointer variables. V7R2

Program A SQL RPGLE calling Program B service program with parameters. One
of the parameter is Pointer.

If we name a pointer parameter variable in Program A --> vMyPointer we get
unexpected data in service program B or MCH exceptions for memory.

If we change the same variable to pMyPointer or svMyPointer everything
works fine.
