Reader Feedback and Insights: Service Program Catch-22 Simplified
July 12, 2002 Timothy Prickett Morgan
Hey, Ted:
The tip you presented in Midrange Guru, OS/400 Edition, about the binding Catch-22 was excellent.
I wanted to point out that the tip mentioned that both programs must be bound twice. This is not true. Only one must be created with OPTION(*UNRSLVREF). The other can be created without ignoring unresolved references, since the first object already exists.
Of course your way will work, but it’s an unnecessary step.
I think that it’s time for IBM to give us a really good MAKE utility that handles the ILE model gracefully.
By the way, I think that a similar article about some other compiler options, for example *DUPPROC, can be written.
