  • Latest enhancements for the RPG compiler in 7.2 and 7.3

    There are three new RPG compiler enhancements for 7.2 and 7.3.

    - Code nested data structure subfields directly, without needing to use LIKEDS.

    - New built-in functions %MAX and %MIN.

    - New parameter *FULL for the ALIGN keyword. ALIGN(*FULL) extends the length of a data structure so that the length is a multiple of the data structure's alignment.

    These enhancements are timed to be available at the same time as the latest TRs, but they are not actually part of the TRs. You need PTFs to get the enhancements.

    For information about the PTFs, see http://ibm.biz/spring_2017_rpg_enhancements.
