SE56202: RDI 9.0 RPGLE LIVE PARSER - PARAMETERS OF GENERATED PROTOTYPES CAN NOT HAVE REFERENCES

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The RPGLE Live outline view incorrectly shows source line
  references to parameter names declared for prototypes, when none
  exist.
  
  Parameter names on prototype declarations are descriptive for
  the program developer, but do not provide definitions that can
  be referenced by other parts of the program.

  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  Parameter names in prototypes are not in the namespace of the
  RPG module.  They are present merely for documentation
  purposes.  Therefore they cannot be referenced.  If a module
  has a similarly named definition, the RPGLE Live outline view
  mistakenly shows source line references to this other
  definition as a reference to the parameter name.
  

Problem conclusion

• This problem is fixed in the RDi 9.0.1 update.
