The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
Just something on access(pathname, F_OK) - it can be used against library
objects, too, so long as you convert the library/object name to path name
format. You can even use the Qp0lProcessSubtree()--Process a Path Name API
to handle generic names (including library/object stuff in path name
format) - of course, if that returns something, then it has to exist,
right? I think that's why a generic name on a CHK* existence command seems
strange to folks.
Anyway, hope this is news to someone.
BTW, access() does not find generic names, either.
As far as the tools are concerned, there is still QUSRTOOL, which is where
TAATOOL used to reside. There are other things there now.

Sure, you
could do a DSPOBJD or DSPFD to an outfile to search library objects and use
access() API for IFS. But, just encapsulating these in single programs and
commands as general utilities allows programs wishing to use these
functions to include just a single call or command reference.
