Re: catch streamfile creation in ifs

[Bruce Vining <bvining@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Looking in the Information Center it looks like the B1 record returns the
File ID, the path, and the name (along with a whole bunch of other things).
And I personally don't think an API name of Qp0lGetPathFromFileID is all
that 'terrible'...

Stefan,

You will not find a reference to the stream file directly, IIRC.

In the portion of the datastructure for OBJECT and LIBRARY you will get the
path ID (16 bytes). To retrieve that you need a terribly named API (do not
know the name right now), which will return '/subdir', the path you are
journalling.

I wrote a not well tested monitor PGM for that. If interested I will post
the code.

Then use a utility, like DIR, that can be found on this list (search for
opendir API) and one of the list members offer a download from his office's
website. With this utility you can list the streamfiles in that DIR.

Regards,
Carel Teijgeler.
