RE: ILE C definition

John ,that's true we just identified that with our one of very old programs.

Thanks all for providing your feedback!

James, I do call C runtime in RPG :) and yes you are not alone! lol

Thanks,

But how would RAND_MAX have any impact in RPG? In RPG all you can do is call the rand() function - and generally it is not worth the effort as its range os too small and CEERAN0 is a better choice.

Even if Mr. Singh is trying to call it from RPG?

(I call the C runtime from RPG with some regularity, and I suspect
that I'm not alone in this.)
