<h1 class="topictitle1">Identify a call stack entry</h1>
<div><p>If a CL procedure is to send a message to an OPM program or another
ILE procedure, you must identify the call stack entry to which the message
is sent.</p>
<div class="section"> <p>The message is sent to the call message queue of the identified
call stack entry.</p>
<p>The TOPGMQ parameter of the <span class="cmdname">Send Program
Message (SNDPGMMSG)</span> command is used to identify the call stack entry
to which a message is sent. Identification of a call stack entry consists
of the following two parts: </p>
<ul><li>Specification of a base entry <p>This specification identifies a program
or procedure within the call stack (this is element 2 of TOPGMQ).</p>
</li>
<li>Offset specification of a base entry <p>The offset specification (element
1 of TOPGMQ) identifies if you send the message to the base (*SAME) or if
you send the message to the caller of the base (*PRV).</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>The specification TOPGMQ(*PRV *) identifies the base entry as
being the one in which the procedure using the <span class="cmdname">Send Program Message
(SNDPGMMSG)</span> command is running. The offset is specified as being
one entry previous to that base. This specification identifies the caller
of the procedure which is using the command.</p>
<p>To understand how to identify
the base entry, element 2 of TOPGMQ, you also need to understand the call
stack when an ILE program is running. Two programs are used to illustrate
this. Program CLPGM1 is an OPM CL program and Program CLPGM2 is an ILE program.
Since program CLPGM2 is ILE, it can consist of several procedures, such as:
CLPROC1, CLPROC2, CLPROC3, and CLPROC4. At runtime the following calls take
place: </p>
<ul><li>CLPGM1 is called first.</li>
<li>CLPGM1 calls CLPGM2.</li>
<li>CLPGM2 calls CLPROC1.</li>
<li>CLPROC1 calls CLPROC2.</li>
<li>CLPROC2 calls CLPROC3 or CLPROC4.</li>
</ul>
<div class="p">This figure below illustrates the following considerations:<ul><li>There is a one-to-one correspondence between a call stack entry and an
OPM program; for each call of an OPM program, one new entry is added to the
call stack.</li>
<li>An ILE program, as a unit, is not represented on the stack; instead, when
an ILE program is called, one entry is added to the stack for each procedure
that is called in the program. As a result, you send a message to an ILE procedure,
not to an ILE program.</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> The first procedure to run when an ILE program is called is
the Program Entry Procedure (PEP) for the program. In CL, this procedure (_CL_PEP)
is generated by the system and calls the first procedure you provide. In this
example, the entry for the PEP is between the entry for the OPM program CLPGM1
and the entry for the procedure CLPROC1.</div>

To use the program or procedure that runs the <span class="cmdname">Send Program

use the TOPGMQ parameter.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="callidbyname.htm">Identify the base entry by name</a></strong><br />
You can identify the base call stack entry by providing the name of the OPM program or ILE procedure running in that entry.</li>
