Description
The hcs_$get_user_access_modes_seg subroutine entry point is incorrectly documented in the manuals, and in hcs_.info segment.
The MPM Subroutines Manual AG95-05:
- misnames this entry point: hcs_$get_user_access_modes_ptr
- declares this entry point with only 5 arguments instead of 6. Declaration for user_id is omitted from the declare statement. user_id does appear in the call statement.
The hcs_.info segment:
- misnames this entry point as a second instance of: hcs_$get_user_access_modes
- declares this entry point with only 5 arguments instead of 6. Declaration for user_id is omitted from the declare statement. user_id does appear in the call statement.
I have a corrected version of hcs_.info at: >udd>m>gd>w>hcs_INFO directory.
