Kurt,
I tried to compile your data structure example inside RDI, and I get the error: RNF7030 "...DATA is not defined". The "DATA" is not define in a file or anything. I am retrieve data from a web-service into that work field.
In my JSON Service program, I process the "DEBUG.DATA" field using %SUBST. And use the Debug.Ary for Debug purposes only...
I am sure I did NOT do my code the best way, but I had to "Hurry up" and get it completed, and it does work. And with the Debug.Ary, I was able to examine data inside of RDI 9.0.1 to see what was being loaded up. I was able to fix & update my code while debugging with RDI 9.0.1!!! Awesome!!
Of course I had to recompile it, to re-test my fixes. But, to me, it is so cool that I can use LPEX editor in "EDIT-MODE" as I am debugging code! And do the Code Fix IMMEDIATELY as I am debugging! Thank you Rational Developer!!!

Ken,
You don't need to define the Data subfield I don't think. That way if Ary changes in size or dimension, you don't need to alter the Data subfield definition.
DCL-DS Debug Qualified;
Data;
Ary Char(500) OverLay(Data) Dim(19999);
END-DS;

I often have to work with HUGE Character strings return from some web-service that I consume....
So, I define my work Variable like this:
DCL-DS Debug Qualified;
Data Char(9999900);
Ary Char(500) OverLay(Data) Dim(19999);
END-DS;
So, I load this Data-Structure, so I can view all my data inside of Debug. It has helped me find a lot of errors, especially when I got special characters I was NOT expecting...
With RDI, I can copy to the clip-board from the MONITOR view to NotePad++ to do a scan for values...

PS. Yes, this work Variable is way over defined... <LOL>
This is my main default input variable that I use. Normally, this more than big enough for me.
DCL-DS Input Qualified;
String CHAR(65000);
Array CHAR(1000) OverLay(String) Dim(65);
END-DS;

OK, guys. I have a program variable in an SQLRPGLE program I am debugging in RDi 9.0.1 defined as 2000 characters. I am loading this variable with an SQL statement to which I am appending " or CPINSD = XXX" where "XXX" is an alphanumeric number coming from a record in a file. The variable gets to a length of 1024 and I can't append the closing parenthesis to close the statement. I have proven that the length can't exceed 1024 characters by removing the last "or CPINSD = XXX" from the variable so the length is less than 1024 bytes, and the closing parenthesis is properly added to the variable. When I dump the program, the dump shows that the variable has 2000 characters allotted to it.
Is there some limitation that says that a variable in a program cannot exceed 1024 characters?
No, there is no 1024 limit, but the default Monitor setting is to only show the first 1024. An example of using your own size:
dcl-s testit char(2048);
%subst(testit: 1025: 4) = 'Buck';
In the Monitors view, I add an expression: testit:c 1032 (I only want to see 1032 characters.) Double click the monitored expression and out there near the end is 'Buck'. You can, of course, go all the way out to the declared size of the variable.
