Re: java prototype fixed to free

Also why are you not using the LIKE keyword on the logfile name definition? It is also unlilkely to be varchar I suspect.

Did you use a tool to do this? It is built into Code for i and there is also the Cozzi plug-in which has larger scope. Don't attempt to do it by hand it is a waste of time and, as you have demonstrated, error prone.

Just wanted to check with the group to see if this conversion is correct

this

Dinit PROEXTPROC(*JAVA:'Mail4RPG2':*CONSTRUCTOR)
D ssluser 30a CONST
D sslpass 30a CONST
D key 10a CONST
D logfile LIKE(filename) CONST

becomes

dcl-pr init object(*JAVA:'Mail4RPG2') extproc(*JAVA:'Mail4RPG2':*CONSTRUCTOR);
ssluser varchar(30) CONST;
sslpass varchar(30) CONST;
key varchar(10) CONST;
logfile varchar(512) CONST;
end-pr;
