Re: _C_IFS_fopen

Hello Chris,

You can find the documentation for the fopen function in the C Library
Functions manual - page 100:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v5r3/topic/books/sc415607.pdf

The mapping between the C Library Functions and the AS/400 runtime
implementation is documented for the IFS functions in the QSYSINC/H file,
member IFS:

 Columns . . . :    1  71           Browse
QSYSINC/H

0003.97       #pragma map ( freopen,  "_C_IFS_freopen")

Does any one use this function in RPGLE?  If so, what authorities are
required to read a file.  I am calling passing the parm of 'r' which, to
the best of my knowledge, is the flag for read only.  The jobs work
great if you have *RWX but blow up if you have *R or *RX only.  I have
been searching IBM great hiding place called InfoCenter with no luck.

What I would really like is the link to the whole _C_IFS_ api's that
shows the necessary authorities.
