ILE RPG Programmer's Guide
When an IBM i job is started, the system creates an activation
group to be used by OPM programs. The symbol used to represent this
activation group is *DFTACTGRP. You cannot delete the OPM default
activation group. It is deleted by the system when your job ends.
OPM programs automatically run in the OPM default activation group.
An ILE program will also run in the OPM default activation group
when one of the following occurs:
- The program was created with DFTACTGRP(*YES) on the CRTBNDRPG
command.
- The program was created with ACTGRP(*CALLER) at the time of program
creation and the caller of the program runs in the default activation
group. Note that you can only specify ACTGRP(*CALLER) on the CRTBNDRPG
command if DFTACTGRP(*NO) is also specified.
Note:
The resources associated with a program running
in the OPM default activation group via *CALLER will not be deleted
until the job ends.
