RE: MOVE/MOVEL and %Scan

["Nicolay, Paul" <paul_nicolay@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Barbara,

New in V5R1... but it also seems to work fine if I compile to target release
V4R4 ?

Can I expect that this will still function if I really move the object to a
V4R4 system ?

Thanks in advance,
Paul

Paul, you remember correctly.  This is one of the changes listed in the
"What's new in this release" section of the V5R1 ILE RPG Programmer's
Guide.
Point 4 in Other enhancements: "The search string in a %SCAN operation
can now be longer than string being searched. (The string will not be
found, but this will no longer generate an error condition.)"  It was
your question about this behaviour, maybe on this mailing list, that
prompted the change.
