Re: UPDSRVPGM

Why do you need OPTION(*DUPPROC)?

I would consider that a red flag that you are doing something you
shouldn't. Particularly when building a service program from modules that
you have created.

In the 30yrs I've been doing ILE, I've never needed it.
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/i/7.4?topic=resolution-duplicate-symbols

If two modules define the same symbol as a strong export, and each module
refers to the symbol, they are referring to separate items. Carefully
examine these messages to ensure your application will function correctly.
You may need to change the strong exports to weak exports or change the
code so that only a single module exports the symbol and all other modules
import it.

Wow... thanks! I'll give it a try.

I was also missing the OPTION(*DUPPROC) on the CRTSRVPGM.

I created a new version of COMPILE called iBuild. You can download it at
www.sourceforge.net/projects/iBuild.

Can use from command line or RDI.

And to add a little more help in the future, compiling different sources:

Scott Klement made a utility named BUILD
and
Alan Camping made a utility named COMPILE

________________________________________________________________________________

UPDSRVPGM only allows you to "snap in" a replacement *MODULE. There is
no way to add a new *MODULE to an existing *SRVPGM - it has to be
re-created with CRTSRVPGM. (No need to delete - the CRTSRVPGM has the
REPLACE(*YES) option.)

The Binder Source allows you the flexibility of managing the Signature
of the *SRVPGM such that you wouldn't (normally) re-create all

dependent

*PGMs/*SRVPGMs which reference it - UNLESS they are calling procedures
in the new (added) *MODULE. It does this through the use of multiple
*PRV Signatures, (for backward compatibility) as well as the *CURRENT
Signature.

GOLDEN RULE: Add new exports to the end of the STRPGMEXP/ENDPGMEXP

block.

(An alternative approach is to manually control the SIGNATURE on the
STRPGMEXP binder source statement by replacing *GEN with your chosen
hex/character string.)

HTH,
Brian.
