Well that would make sense ... In my case the program does not ABEND if some function -- also relative branch -- is called first rather than ISAUTH, which makes no sense at all.
I have not tried every possibility, for example - what if I called some other function rather than ISAUTH at the early point in the C++ logic where I call (or comment out the call to) ISAUTH? - what if I called ISAUTH later in the program, after other functions had been called successfully? Seems to me if I were writing a "how much heap actually got used" tool I would just initialize the whole heap to X'DEADBEEF' or X'8BADF00D' or something and then at EOJ search from the top for the end of the initial value. But what do I know.

Interesting thought. I have this very vague recollection, that when RPTSTG is ON, things are set up so that the stack is always too small (or gives that appearance), so that routine gets called every time. However, it has been a very long time since I was near anything like that, things may have changed, and perhaps I had the story wrong in the first place. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
