Version 4.2.6 for Mainframes (Update)
 —  Parameter Reference  —

RPCUCT - Translate Subprogram Name into Upper Case

For static specification, this parameter is available as a keyword subparameter of the NTRPC macro. For dynamic specification, this parameter is available as a keyword subparameter of the profile parameter RPC.

This parameter specifies whether or not the Natural RPC server will translate the name of the remote CALLNAT to be executed into upper case.

RPCUCT is specified on the server side only.

Possible settings ON

The name of the remote CALLNAT to be executed by the Natural RPC server will be translated into upper case before the CALLNAT is invoked.

With this option, non-Natural RPC clients are supported that use mixed case characters in the subprogram names.

Note:
On UNIX, OpenVMS and Windows platforms, an implicit upper case translation is already done by Natural itself. RPCUCT=ON is therefore the compatibility mode for Natural RPC servers on mainframes and Natural RPC servers on UNIX, OpenVMS and Windows platforms.

OFF The name of the remote CALLNAT to be executed by the Natural RPC server is not changed. If the name contains lower case characters a NAT00082 error message is to be expected.
Default setting OFF  
Dynamic specification yes  
Specification within session no
