❏ TCRFUN_MATCH_PARAMETERS_SIZE
The logical size (without any concern about comp-*) of all INPUT,INOUT,OUTPUT parameters provided on a given procedure call must match the logical size of all parameters of at least one declared procedure of the same name.
❏ TCRFUN_MATCH_PARAMETERS_COMPRESSION
The physical compression of all INPUT,INOUT parameters provided on a given procedure call must match the physical compression (same comp-* between caller and callee) of all parameters of at least one declared procedure of the same name.
✓ TCRFUN_EMPTY_CALL
A CALL statement that has none of the USING, INPUT, INOUT, OUTPUT or RETURNING clauses is recognized as:
- a procedure invocation if there is a procedure declared with no INPUT, INOUT or OUTPUT parameter visible in the current scope ;
- a function invocation if there is a function declared with no INPUT or RETURNING parameter visible in the current scope ;
- a standard COBOL CALL statement if there is neither.
