gets a lot uglier...


Thanks,

RPG naming of overloaded Java methods

   Since RPG does not allow for procedure overloading I'm wondering what
   other solutions people have come up with.

   For example, I have....

         *
         * iText Document Methods
         *
        D new_iText_Document...
        D                 PR                  like(iText_Document)
        D                                     ExtProc(*JAVA
        D                                     :'com.lowagie.text.Document'
        D                                     :*CONSTRUCTOR)
        D new_iText_Document_Pagesize...
        D                 PR                  like(iText_Document)
        D                                     ExtProc(*JAVA
        D                                     :'com.lowagie.text.Document'
        D                                     :*CONSTRUCTOR)
        D pagesize                            like(iText_Rectangle)
   where the constructor for an new_iText_Document is overloaded.  My
   solution was to add the Pagesize parameter to the name.

   Does anyone else have any other naming suggestions?

   Thanks,
