Re: Stopping processing with using a bunch of if statements

How about something like this...

Have each procedure return a success indicator where *on = success, then

Begin Procedure1

if Procedure2()
and Procedure3()
and Procedure4() ;
clear Errorfound ;
else;
Errorfound = *on;
return;
endif;

Mainline can then test for Errorfound that was set by the procedures.

I have an RPGLE program that calls a number of procedures. If it is in a
procedure and it detects an error, I want it to stop processing and exit
back to the main procedure where the initial screen is displayed to inform
the user of the error. I do not want the program to abend. Is there a way
do to this without placing an if statement after each procedure? That
could
get really ugly and it would probably be easy to miss one because not all
procedures can encounter an error.
