Re: Oh No... How do I run commands in S36 environment?

I was thinking he'd do:

CHKOBJ OBJ(*LIBL/&CMDNAME) OBJTYPE(*CMD)

And if it failed (i.e. didn't find a command with that name) he'd simply ASSUME it was an S/36 proc.

Couple of things. First, CHKOBJ may be problematic against 36
"commands." As you probably know, these are really source members,
not objects, that reside in the QS36PRC source physical file. I just
ran a test of CHKOBJ using *LIBL and, if the procedure/command (which
does exist in the library) is not in the first source PF, CHKOBJ
returns a 'not found' error. So you will have to know the specific
library or, as in my test, use *CURLIB if the procedure is supposed
to be there.

Second, are these really always going to be *CMD objects or might
they be CL *PGM objects from time-to-time?
