Re: IFS File Authority

These are for library objects, not the rest of the IFS.

There is the stat() function - it is callable with CALLPRC from a CLLE program because it uses pointers. First parameter is the path name, second parameter is a structure that contains the various information you want - declare a *CHAR long enough to get it all. See InfoCenter API Finder to get the details. Scott Klement probably has the layout translated into the various binary, etc., data chunks.

Hi Mark

You can use the Retrieve Object Description (QUSROBJD) API to retrieve the owner information for the object, and the Retrieve users Authorised to an Object (QSYRTVUA) API to find out any user specific authiorities (this includes, *PUBLIC, group, etc).

All the best
