Hi Everyone I am experiencing a problem with EntireX. I am calling a subprogram via service written in C#. The subprogram uses 3 PDA’s. When I call the subprogram using the 3 PDA’s, I get the error in the subject. If I remove 1 PDA I do not get the error. The first PDA exists out of 14 fields mainly containing security information and messages passed between the web and mainframe. The second PDA contains 3 array of 10 occurrences of 30 characters each. The 2 arrays of 999 occurrences. One with 3 characters and one of 60 characters. Any suggestions or help will be appreciated. Thank you Ivan ---

Might look like a exx vs .NET version issue !? Which versions are you on ? Finn ---

Hi It seem the problem is in the second parameter, because if I remove the first parameter. I still get the error. But there is no difference between how the PDA was declared on the web and mainframe. They are identical. ---

Could you post the second pda ? Finn PS perhaps you should consider upgrading to a supported version 😉 ---

I just checked the documentation - and it looks like you might run into problems with the version mix you have: version 8.1.2 Windows prereqs: [http://techcommunity.softwareag.com/ecosystem/documentation/webmethods/wmsuites/wmsuite9-6/EntireX/9-6\_EntireX/relnotes/previousPdfs/rn\_812.pdf](http://techcommunity.softwareag.com/ecosystem/documentation/webmethods/wmsuites/wmsuite9-6/EntireX/9-6_EntireX/relnotes/previousPdfs/rn_812.pdf) ? .NET Wrapper ? .NET Framework 2.0. ? C# Compiler from Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 or 2008. version 9.6 [http://techcommunity.softwareag.com/ecosystem/documentation/webmethods/wmsuites/wmsuite9-6/EntireX/9-6\_EntireX/print/relnotes.pdf](http://techcommunity.softwareag.com/ecosystem/documentation/webmethods/wmsuites/wmsuite9-6/EntireX/9-6_EntireX/print/relnotes.pdf) ? .NET Wrapper ? .NET Framework 4.0. ?

I noticed that the variable OPERATOR is called searchOperator ??? Finn BTW I tried to generate in exx9.6 which gives a somewhat different structure 😉 namespace SoftwareAG.EntireX.NETWrapper.Generated.IVAN.Groups { #region Groups for LIBRARY ‘IVAN’, PROGRAM ‘IVAN’ public class Ivan { public class Exgen1p1 { [SendAs(IdlType.Group, Id=0, Dim=10f)]public ParameterList parameterList = (ParameterList)Construction.GroupArray(typeof(ParameterList), 10 , 0 , 0 ); public class ParameterList { [SendAs(IdlType.A, Length=30f, Id=0, Trim=true)]public string keyDescription ; [SendAs(IdlType.A, Length=30f, Id=1, Trim=true)]public string keyValue ; [SendAs(IdlType.A, Length=30f, Id=2, Trim=true)]public string operator ; } } } #endregion ---

Usually this error occurs if you modify the generated code. ---

Hi All Found the problem, which is actually very simple. :oops: I missed the f in the dim=10f when I declared the array in C#. Stupid mistake, but kept me busy for a while. Hopefully the next person who encounters this problem can learn from my mistake. Thank you for the assistance. ---
