Re: CLP v7.3 versus v7.4

Jim,
Bear in mind that what he was showing you was created by the tool to
generate source. I'm hoping that understands the difference between hyphen
and plus signs.

just to be sure, &OVRFILE does not exist, and the variable is named
&OVRFIL ?
Also, check
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/i/7.3?topic=parts-cl-command-continuation
and the difference between hyphen for continuation and plus sign
continuation. I've always used +, and they are not the same.

Strange Issue, system running v7r4

Version of program in Production that works was compiled with V7R3M0
compiler.
Statement in CLP in question:
Source code shows:
/*LWW01*/ CALL PGM(BRNCHSEC) PARM('1' 'INVMAS' ' ' ' ' ' ' &OVRFIL)
RTVCLSRC shows:
CALL PGM(BRNCHSEC) PARM('1' 'INVMAS' ' ' ' ' ' ' &OVRFIL)


Recompiled program with V7R4M0 compiler:
Source code shows:
/*LWW01*/ CALL PGM(BRNCHSEC) PARM('1' 'INVMAS' ' ' ' ' ' ' &OVRFIL)
RTVCLSRC shows:
CALL PGM(BRNCHSEC) PARM(('1') ('INVMAS') (' ') (' ') (' ') -
(&OVRFIL))

Program compiled with V7R4M0 compiler does not work. Variable &OVRFIL is
returning as blank.

&OVRFILE is defined as DCL VAR(OVRFIL) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(10)

Any ideas?

Thank you.
