Re: Getting a MCH3601 Pointer not set -- RPG400-L

This code has been around over 20 years and is suppose to the work.
The CL program is only passing four parms to the rpg program that has a
plist of FIVE PARMS.

Could this be the problem? Did not write any of this.

Are you passing three parameters when calling the program?

I have the following:

D-specs
D wrunc s 1

Getting this in the definitions per compiled listing

WRUNC A(1) 009800D 011400 0390
BASED(_QRNL_PRM+)

*entry plist
parm ONE
parm TWO
parm wrunc

Now in the C-specs
if wrunc = cspace

When I hit this line inside debug or not in debug mode I get a

Pointer not set for location referenced.
Function check. MCH3601 unmonitored by PROGRAM_NAME at statement 123456.

In my AS400 COBOL days a MCH3601 came from not having the file that had
variable in the record OPENED.

Not having a good day. Lots of internet ups and downs.

Other issues.
