ACTGRP(*STGMDL | *NEW | *CALLER | 'activation-group-name')

The ACTGRP keyword allows you to specify the activation group the program is associated with when it is called. If ACTGRP(*STGMDL) is specified and STGMDL(*SNGLVL) or STGMDL(*INHERIT) is in effect, the program will be activated into the QILE activation group when it is called. If ACTGRP(*STGMDL) is specified and STGMDL(*TERASPACE) is in effect, the program will be activated into the QILETS activation group when it is called. If ACTGRP(*NEW) is specified, then the program is activated into a new activation group. If ACTGRP(*CALLER) is specified, then the program is activated into the caller's activation group. If an activation-group-name is specified, then that name is used when this program is called.

If the ACTGRP keyword is not specified, then the value specified on the command is used.

The ACTGRP keyword is valid only if the CRTBNDRPG command is used.

You cannot use the ACTGRP, BNDDIR, or STGMDL keywords when creating a program with DFTACTGRP(*YES).

Note:
The name of the activation group created when the program is called will have exactly the same case as the text entered for the activation-group-name. The RCLACTGRP command does not allow lower-case text to be specified for its ACTGRP parameter. If it is required to reclaim an activation group individually using the RCLACTGRP command then do not enter lower-case case text for the activation-group-name.
