I am trying to resolve an intermittent hang problem with one of my applications.
One practice that I have used in the past was to declare most of the common variables via procedure call while at the main menu (about 90 VARS). At the end of each process I "CLEAR ALL VAR EXCEPT RB%" and then call the procedure to set the variables for the next process to be run. I am wondering if this method may be contributing to my hangs. I am sure that SET and CLEAR VARS as you go is the best technique so I plan to revise my application. But what about clearing VARS using CLEAR ALL VAR EXCEPT RB%; is there a downside to that? That would save me a lot of time when I make the changes (the application is quite large). Does anyone have any thoughts on this method?
