Re: data structure question -- RPG400-L

Thanks Chris.
I use     IF statement so I can issue return *ON to return populated data structures to the caller. How do you use on-no-error return *ON in monitor block?

The %error only returns the error code for the prior operation. Some op-codes must be coded with a "(E)" like CHAIN(E) for the error to be returned.

I would suggested using Monitor blocks around code that you think could fail.

Monitor;
p_dsCmpabc.wtdbrr = dsRequestIn.Company.brands.brand.branchcode;
p_dsCmpabc.wtdtyr= dsRequestIn.Company.brands.brand.productcode;
On-error;
// error occurred in this block.
pErrorDS.error = *on ;
doError('AGH0005':pErrorDS);
return *off ;
Endmon;

Alternatively, you could use a *PSSR subroutine inside the procedure to capture errors for the entire procedure.

Also, as Mark pointed out, the syntax for the ELSE is not correct. You have one extra End If. I think you meant something like this:

if %error() ;
pErrorDS.error = *on ;
doError('AGH0005':pErrorDS);
return *off ;
else;
return *on;
endif;

Hello
Assuming that p_dsCmpabc,p_dsCmpdef,p_dsCmpghi,p_dsCmpklm,p_dsCmpnop,p_dsCmpqrs and p_dsCmpuvw are empty DS passed in the below call, If the procedure call is successful I want to see that all these datastructures get populated, could you please let me know if I am missing any thing?

Is the error handling procedure need to be repeated for each data structure so each one gets populated if there is no error?
