Re: HTTP API and multiple connections

Consider running them in separate activation groups -- then each will
have its own copy of HTTPAPI.

If you can't do that, then the problem will be any global setting will
be kept the same. You've found the exit points, but other things like
CCSIDs, logs, http_auth settings, etc will be kept. This isn't a problem
if you set them all before each request (or disable the setting) -- then
it will work fine, you just have to be careful to avoid settings being
left over from the last request.

Given
- PGMA using HTTP API to contact ServiceA

If PGMA has an open to connection to ServiceA, but between request calls
ProcB, is that asking for trouble?

I saw an issue with http_xproc(HTTP_POINT_ADDL_HEADER), since both PGMA

and

ProcB were setting it, I had to reset it in PGMA after my call to ProcB.

Is there anything else I should be concerned about? At first glance,

we're

not using any of the other http exit points. I can see where debug
settings might be an issue.

Thank you!
