I have created commands with the "where allowed to run" value of *IPGM *BPGM
*IREXX *BREXX (even though I don't use REXX). These are RTVxxx type
commands that return a value.

I could just as easily restrict those commands to *IPGM *BPGM. Wouldn't
those commands then appear to be programming only commands? If you DSPCMD
RTVJOBA, it shows as where allowed *IPGM *BPGM *IREXX *BREXX which would
indicate it's a programming only command.

Does anyone know if there is an easy way to identify commands, based
on attributes, that actually execute programs vs. those that are
just used for CL programs?

Example:

PGM, ENDPGM, and DCL are programming only commands.
RTVJOBA, CRTPGM, DLTF are executable commands.


That a command is limited to only program-flow\statement versus at a
command line is determined by the "Where allowed to run" values of the
command; i.e. those with either or both, *IPGM and\or *BPGM, but with no
other allowed modes.

The CMDI0100 Format of the Retrieve Command Information (QCDRCMDI)
API returns the "Where allowed to run" information of a *CMD object.

To distinguish probably if an OS or LPP command, the CPP library
would be the QSYS or a product (option) library; the object "Licensed
program" information of the *CMD object could be used instead, or just
to corroborate the inference.
