Re: Calling Teraspace C from RPGLE program

[Scott Klement <midrange-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Zvi,

RPG allows the use of teraspace pointers, so you can allocate memory to 
them, manipulate them, copy data to them, etc. in an RPG program. You do 
not need to compile with any special options for this.

ILE C on the other hand, is a bit different. It has the ability to be 
compiled as "teraspace enabled" which basically makes it use teraspace for 
EVERYTHING by default, instead of just when you call special APIs.

The problem is, you have an RPG program that's passing a single-level 
storage model parameters to a teraspace-enabled C program.  The C program 
is expecting a parameter allocated in teraspace.

I would guess that you could fix this problem (though I haven't tried it) 
by creating variables in teraspace in the RPG program and then passing 
those as parms instead of using the SLS parms.

Like I said, I haven't tried it, but it's worth a shot.
