I hate to ask.... but what's the downside of adding *DEFER?

Normally all Service programs are resolved when the program that uses them is called. This can result in significant overhead for multi-function routines that are linked to multiple service programs but are just called to implement a simple function and never use 90% of the Service Program functionality in any given call.

Prior to defer the only way to deal with this was to go through the hassle of loading service programs manually.

With *Defer the service program is only initialized as and when one of its routines is called for the first time. In other words the SP is only ever loaded when needed.

WOW I did not know about *DEFER, even now I dont have any idea how this works.
Have you got any feedback from the originator of this question. Perhaps a thank you would have been nice.

Anyhow, thanks for that Scott.

Hello,

So why not bind with *DEFER?

CRTPGM xxx BNDSRVPGM(YAJL *DEFER)

-or

ADDBNDDIRE BNDDIR(YAJL) OBJ((YAJLR4 *SRVPGM *DEFER))

...etc...

Vern, XMLTABLE and JSON_TABLE are very similar. I'd guess JSON_TABLE was
cloned from XMLTABLE and then tweaked a bit.

Scott, YAJL is not in our *LIBL by default. We add it as needed. When I
added the YAJL reference to our service program, our service program would
fail on
