The binder writes a module map as part of the saved module under the following circumstances: There is a strong reference to IEWBMMP in one of the modules input to a bind. "Strong reference" -- in other words, not a WXTRN. That seems to just be how it works.

If you want to declare it WXTRN for some reason then you will need to include its module explicitly. Or maybe I don't know what I am talking about.

Dave, I just read this thread, and I have a question. We recently learned about IEWBMMP, and we may have a use for it in our shop. But I'm confused about the use of WXTRN in this context. I just did a small test, and it appears to me that if I specify V(IEWBMMP) and WXTRN IEWBMMP in my source code, the module map is *not* generated in the load module. If I remove the WXTRN statement, I do get the module map. So I'm wondering if I'm missing something... is there a reason to specify IEWBMMP as a WXTRN? Any advice would be greatly appreciated; thank you! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
