What are differences between Static Call and Dynamic Call?
Answer Posted / rajesh
There are lot of differences. Some of them are
1.If you call the subprogram by hardcoding it into the
program it is known as static program whereas calling the
subprogram by means of a working storage variable is known
as dynamic call.
Static call: CALL ''SUBPRG1''
Dynamic call: CALL WS-SPRGNAME
2.If you want to execute the modules with static call, the
load module will collectively contain the loadlibs of all
the modules involved.(Both calling and the called).
In case of Dynamic the loadlib contains the loadmodule of
the calling module alone.
3.If u want to call programs depending on some condition
(ie not every time with calling pogram must use Dynamic
call).If subprograms need to be called for everytime with
callling programs must use static call.
4.The module involving static call takes more time in
compilation process whereas dynamic takes more time to run.
These are some of the major differences.Please let me know
if i m wrong anywhere.
