>Loading from the HFS seems to prefer to load RENT modules in read-only memory; without the "a" attribute.
I haven't tested, and I believe what you say is what you see. However, this is not expected behaviour, since RENT does *not* mean the program must not modify itself. The Program Management User's Guide explicitly mentions that: Module reusability: o Reenterable (reentrant). The module is designed for concurrent execution by multiple tasks. If a reenterable module modifies its own data areas or other shared resources in any way, appropriate serialization must be in place to prevent interference between using tasks. -- Peter Hunkeler ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
