Re: Stopping processing with using a bunch of if statements

Don't you want this? The problem is you are using a subroutine and on line
9 you are issuing a return which will end the program.

If TestForError;
// Throw error.
EndIf;

//*********************************************************************************************
// TestForErrors - Test for errors
// In - None
// In/Out - None
// Out - None
// Returns - True if error occurred. False if not
//*********************************************************************************************
dcl-proc TestForErrors;
dcl-pi *N Ind end-pi;

If Procedure2() And
Procedure3() And
Procedure4();
Return FALSE;
Else;
Return TRUE;
EndIf;

end-proc;

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

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.
