Re: sqlcblle - pointer error on select into?

That explains why our versions worked and yours didn't.

The pre-compiler should really have spotted that though.

And I presume if you don't write in COBOL every single day, you aren't
going to know this...
Probably why Jon and Richard could not spot the issue in my code I provided.

So if I move my Linkage Section (3 lines) to the bottom of the DATA
DIVISION, no pointer error.
Even works fine in my original *SRVPGM/*MODULE implementation.

mystery solved.

thanks!

ok, so I've simplified this a great deal and still getting the pointer
error...
Below is simply a SQLCBLLE *PGM, and no pointer error on the EXEC SQL in
the procedure division.

But as soon as I uncomment out the Linkage Section 3 lines, I get the
pointer error on the EXEC SQL in the procedure division.
Why is this?

I have no idea what you are doing wrong Jay - but using Richard's code as
a base I was able to create a service program and call it multiple times
from an RPG test program with zero failures.

I ran the SrvPgm as *Caller and allowed the RPH to default the AG.

Everything worked as it should.

You need to show us the CRT commands for the SP and the RPG caller. What
AGs are being used? How does the COBOL return - Exit Program or ... ?

Tried the changes...

still the pointer error when the SQLCBLLE is a *module in a *srvpgm, and
called from an SQLRPGLE.

Awesome.
Thanks.
I’ll try these changes out.

Looks like you also don't need the comma in this statement:

PROCEDURE DIVISION USING INCOMING-VALUE1, OUTGOING-VALUE1.

I changed it to:
PROCEDURE DIVISION USING INCOMING-VALUE1,
OUTGOING-VALUE1.

Didn't know that would solve it but it seemed to.

Also looks like this becomes your subproc ID for service program:

PROGRAM-ID. CBL00000M_PGM1.

Proc is: CBL00000M_PGM1

Thanks Richard,

So my parameters error (pointer) error was occurring on the exec sql

statement of the sqlcblle.

Funny thing, if you were in debug, and viewed the :outgoing-value1

just

before the exec sql statement it was initialized and referenceable.

But as

soon as you stepped on the exec sql you would get the pointer error.

Also my sqlclble was a *module accessed from a srvpgm, not just a

stand

alone *pgm.
