Re: Upcoming RPG enhancements for 7.3 and 7.4 are announced today

I think my fave is all-of-the-above! And at least 3 of these came through RFEs I've had the privilege to review, and maybe all of them.

Super!

The upcoming RPG enhancements with PTFs for 7.3 and 7.4 were announced today.

They'll be available soon, timed with the Fall 2020 TRs.

See https://ibm.biz/rpg_cafe#announcement

- Options to allow all-blanks and thousands separators for string parameters for %DEC, %INT, %FLOAT etc.

- New %RANGE and %LIST built-in functions, and new FOR-EACH opcode

- Optionally require prototypes for exported procedures and for the cycle-main procedure

- Debug the return value for a procedure

If I had to pick a fave, it would be the FOR-EACH opcode. Wait, no, %LIST. Wait, no, debugging the return value.
