Shows how many of the parameters in the call statement of the calling program have been transferred to the called subprogram.

Restriction: This routine is supported for native COBOL only.

Note: This routine has been deprecated in Net Express 4.0 onwards: it is provided for backward compatibility only. You should instead use CBL_GET_PROGRAM_INFO using by value 8.

Syntax:

                 function-code
                 parameter

Parameters:

	Using call prototype (see Key)	Picture
`result`	cblt-x1-compx	pic x comp-x.
`function-code`	cblt-x1-compx	pic x comp-x.
`parameter`	cblt-x1-compx	pic x comp-x.

On Entry:

function-code

Value 16

On Exit:

`parameter`	The number of parameters.
`result`	Set to zero if the call was successful, nonzero otherwise.

Comments:

This function is used in the called program; for the function to work in generated code, the program must be compiled with the PARAMCOUNTCHECK directive.

This function can only be used if the program is called from a COBOL program.
