Re: Calling an ILE C Routine from ILE RPG (V7R2)

Hello Javier,

In my experience, when a C string is required as a parameter, where this
"string" contains readable characters, and a terminating null character,
I'd rather code the prototype for this parameter as:

D PW_BUF * VALUE OPTIONS(*STRING)

Thank you very much!! That did the trick! Now I know what to read about and learn.

Additionally, I'd load the PW_BUF as:

C EVAL PW_BUF = %TRIM(PW_BUF) + X'00'

The compiler is supposed to append a X'00' but including yours as a safety measure won't harm your execution.

Thanks again for the hint!

:wq! PoC
