RE: Difference between QSYS/QGYOLOBJ versus QGY/QGYOLOBJ

Hi Dave,

I believe that the QGY* APIs were originally supplied by IBM as in library
QGY. It is mentioned in one of the Memo to Users that library QGY will be
disappearing (no longer be needed or shipped) at a future VRM and the APIs
supplied as part of the OS. V5R3M0 may be the 1st VRM that the APIs are
shipped in QSYS as well as QGY. V5R4 on one of our boxes still contains
library QGY.  

Regards,

Kevin Wright

Subject: Difference between QSYS/QGYOLOBJ versus QGY/QGYOLOBJ


Hello,

While trying to use one of my tool programs at a client site, it blew 
up because it could not find the QGYOLOBJ API.  Upon further 
checking, it appears that the QGYOLOBJ (Open List of Objects) program 
has been deleted from QSYS.  I found another QGYOLOBJ program in 
library QGY and by adding library QGY to my library list, my program 
worked okay.

In checking QGYOLOBJ on other systems, the programs in QSYS and QGY 
appear to be different when you look at the object description.  What 
is the difference between the two programs and can I just create a 
dup object from QGY to QSYS to make the QGYOLOBJ program available to 
all users at this particular client site?

This particular client will be migrating off of this machine onto 
another machine in the next 8 months or so.  Is there another option 
to get this program back into QSYS?

I believe that this client is still on V5R2 and my other clients and 
my machine are on V5R3 and above.

Thanks
