Re: *ENTRY vs. " PI " in RDP 8.0.3 problems with OUTLINE view

What about just using RDP 8.5 ?

Hi,

Going forward, I am using the procedure interface the "PI" for my
*ENTRY parameters.

But, I hate HARD-CODING the program name in the "PI"...

So, I leave it BLANK, and it compiles fine and executes as expected!

Cool!

Now to back to RDP 8.0.3, it blows up when I try to create an
OUTLINE view. It just crashes and ends RDP. No message, No Error, just

ENDS...

<Big Frown>

I even tried to verify first. But that fails, because it wants me to
HARD-CODE the Main procedure in the "PI" statement...

I guess I should go back to FIXED Format for *ENTRY parameter list...
<Disappointment>

PS. I understand when you have multiple modules, and you need to
know the main interface. But, we mostly use Service programs.
