RE: Returning message from queue

Rogers,

If you can test it interactively use STRDBG before running the process. If it's running in batch start up the batch process then use STRSRVJOB followed by STRDBG. Set a breakpoint right after the RCVMSG command. It's best to have the program compiled with CRTCLPGM OPTION(*SRCDBG) or CRTBNDCL/CRTCLMOD DGBVIEW(*SOURCE) so you can visually set the breakpoint. When the breakpoint is reached use EVAL &MSGTXT or EVAL &MSGTXT :X to see the character or hexadecimal value in &MSGTXT.

Paul,

How would I go about using debug?

Rogers,

Are you sure it's a problem with RCVMSG and not a problem with SNDMSG?
Have you tried to run the program under debug or use a DMPCLPGM command
to view &MSGTXT?

I have the below CL program that will not return the message text from
&MSGTXT in the RCVMSG command.



What am I missing here.







PGM PARM(&MSGKEY &TOMSGQ &TOLIB)

DCL &MSGKEY *CHAR 4

DCL &TOMSGQ *CHAR 10

DCL &TOLIB *CHAR 10

DCL &MSGTXT *CHAR 132



RCVMSG MSGQ(&TOLIB/&TOMSGQ) MSGTYPE(*ANY) +

KEYVAR(&MSGKEY) MSG(&MSGTXT)

/* MONMSG CPF0000 EXEC(RETURN) */



SNDMSG MSG(&MSGTXT) TOUSR(MISRML1)
