Multiple Occurrence Data Structures
Multiple Occurrence Data Structures by default behave the same as in RPG/400. The current occurrence is initially set to the first and can be changed using the OCCUR operation code or %OCCUR function. They can be declared using the DCLDS command.
Encore RPG also allows the [ ] characters to access occurrences. Use of the [ ] does not alter the current occurrence.
Example
| MOVE | Total | MyDS[5].Total |
| MOVE | Prod | MyDS[5].ProdArray[3] |
| MOVE | Amount | MyMultDCLFLDDS[5,3,2].Amount |
