Special RPG IV functions

Special RPG IV functions

There are some functions especially designed to be used on RPG IV sources:

Send data defintions to the D-spec. With the command 'S' you can send a fielddefinition that you've created in the C-spec to the D-spec. When you have used the *Like Define command, the statement will be deleted, otherwise only the definition will be removed from the C-spec.


   C                   Z-add     *Zero         W@numb           15 5          Number

Will result in D-specs:


    * Program defined fields                                                          
   D  W@numb         S             15  5                                      Number

And C-Spec


   C                   Z-add     *Zero         W@numb                         Number

With one single command you can translate a RPGIII-like statement to a RPGIV-like statement. For instance:

   300       Add       500       W@NUMB   
             Move      '1'       *INLR    
   NUMB1     Ifeq      NUMB2
will translate into
   Eval       W@NUMB = 300 + 500   
   Eval       *INLR = *ON
   If         NUMB1 = NUMB2
etc.

Editor/400 will translate your opcodes to a standard layout, all capitals or only the first character a capital and the rest lower case:

EVAL or Eval

ENDIF or Endif
