RPG Cafe: ON-EXIT section in a procedure

Enhancement for 7.2 and 7.3: The ON-EXIT section with code that is run whenever a procedure ends

The ILE RPG compiler is enhanced with a new ON-EXIT opcode which begins the "ON-EXIT" section containing code to be run whenever a procedure ends, either normally or abnormally.

If you have code that you always want to run when your procedure ends, put that code in the ON-EXIT section. https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/ssw_ibm_i_73/rzasd/zzonexit.htm
