It was explained to me struct are similar to classes in Java and can be created and extended to define an "object". I am reading and testing but not sure I understand how structures truly work.
| Code: |
dcl 1 person,
2 first_name var char(50),
2 last_name var char(50),
2 is_developer var char(1);
dcl london_emp type person;
dcl ny_emp type person;
|
When I compile
| Code: |
| ny_emp.first_name = "Joe" |
, I get an error stating
| Code: |
| the dot qualified reference ny_emp.first_name is unknown |
.
Am I misunderstanding and structs cant be used this way?
Do I need to make a struct for both NY and London? |

You have to use LIKE keyword in place of incorrect one: TYPE. |
