They do need to be null terminated, but you can get RPG to do it for you 
by coding OPTIONS(*STRING) on the prototype and coding the passed 
parameter as a character value rather than a pointer.

Without OPTIONS(*STRING)

    temp = %trim(name) + x'00';
    proc(%addr(temp));

With OPTIONS(*STRING)

    proc(%trim(name));

With OPTIONS(*STRING : *TRIM)

    proc(name);
