Re: Upcoming spring 2021 RPG enhancements announced today

Hi Barbara,

Thanks for those new bifs.  I've recently wanted %split, and had to write my own, less generic, version.

I'm not sure I'd ever use it this way, but because it said %split returns an array, would the following syntax be allowed?

    the2ndWord = %split(sentence)(2)

They'll be available soon, but they might be a bit later than the Spring 2021 TRs. I'll post again when the RPG PTFs are available.

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

- New built-in functions %LOWER and %UPPER

- New built-in function %SPLIT

- EXPROPTS(*STRICTKEYS) to have stricter rules about %KDS and a parenthesized list of keys.
