ILE C/C++ Programmer's Guide
A static procedure call can call any of the following:
- A procedure within the same module
- A procedure in a separate module within the same ILE C program or service
program
- A procedure in a separate ILE C service program
- Note:
- The term procedure in ILE is equivalent to the term function in ILE C.
Static procedure calls use fewer system resources at run time
(specifically, when the program is activated) than dynamic program calls,
because static procedure calls are resolved and bound at compile time.
Symbols for dynamic program calls are resolved to addresses whenever the call
is performed.
- Note:
- The term static procedure call does not refer to static storage class but
refers to a bound procedure call within a bound module or service
program. Operational descriptors can be used to resolve the differences
in the representation of character strings, if:
- The static call is to a procedure written in a language other that C or
C++
- Values of this data type are passed as arguments
