Re: RCVMSG MSGTYPE(*EXCP) RMV(*YES) - not finding messages...

Been there, done that, still waiting for that T-shirt!

It should be pretty safe to do - put the StartKey stuff at the earliest opportunity - remember to remove the message (by key) the message you just sent.

Then put the EndKey stuff and loop at the very end.

Good luck!

Hi

What is your LOG() parameter set to?

And maybe this is why the API call is better, in an RPG program - it
doesn't end up in the log, IIRC. The ILE/C example isn't too hard to
convert into RPG.

LOGCLPGM(*NO) should prevent those, as you've done.

Thanks Vern,
I had the increment, but failed in my copy/paste operation...
The following works.
BUT, instead of 500 RNX0114 messages, I now have twice the number of
RCVMSG commands in my log as I had Exception messages...

I have added a CHGJOB LOG(0) LOGCLPGM(*NO)
after my call to my notespgm11,
and set it back at the bottom.

Is there something different I should do to supress the RCVMSG commands?

SNDPGMMSG MSG('/* Start of Notes Program. */') +
KEYVAR(&STARTKEY)
SNDPGMMSG MSG('Key is: ' *CAT&STARTKEY)
START: CALL PGM(NOTESPGM11)
CHGJOB LOG(0) LOGCLPGM(*NO)

SNDPGMMSG MSG('/* End of Notes Program. */') +
KEYVAR(&ENDKEY)
/* REMOVE EXCEPTION MESSAGES FROM JOBLOG */
CHGVAR VAR(%BIN(&MSGKEY 1 4)) VALUE(%BIN(&STARTKEY +
1 4))
TOPOLOOP:

RCVMSG PGMQ(*SAME (*)) MSGTYPE(*EXCP) +
MSGKEY(&MSGKEY) RMV(*YES)
MONMSG MSGID(CPF2415) EXEC(GOTO BOTTOM)
MONMSG CPF2410 EXEC(DO) /* HANDLE MSGKEY NOT FOUND */
RCVMSG MSGTYPE(*EXCP) RMV(*YES)
ENDDO
CHGVAR %BIN(&MSGKEY 1 4) (%BIN(&MSGKEY 1 4) + 1)
IF cond(%BIN(&MSGKEY)< %BIN(&ENDKEY)) THEN(GOTO TOPOLOOP)

BOTTOM:
CHGJOB LOG(4 0 *SECLVL) LOGCLPGM(*YES)
ENDPGM

For one thing, you have to increment&MSGKEY in order to get all the
messages. When you do your RCVMSG, MONMSG CPF2410 to take care of a
message key not found - do a RMVMSG of the CPF2410.

Add another SNDPGMMSG after your call, to get an&ENDKEY. Then make your
loop end when your&MSGKEY is *GE *ENDKEY.

If you added the increment, then this could remove ALL messages
generated during the called program - you probably want to be selective
- RCVMSG MSGID(&MSGID) is needed, then.

IBM has a great document on this - http://tinyurl.com/cbe4nth will get
you there. Examples in CL and in ILE/C - the latter can easily be
adapted to RPG, of course, but not needed here.

I have a RPGLE that generates LOTS of RNX0114 messages.

when the program is done, I want to remove those messages from the jobs
message queue.

However, I can't figure out how to get to those messages. I think I
need
some different setting for PGMQ:

SNDPGMMSG MSG('/* Start of Notes Program. */') +
KEYVAR(&STARTKEY)

CALL NOTESPGM11

CHGVAR VAR(%BIN(&MSGKEY 1 4)) VALUE(%BIN(&STARTKEY

BOTTOM:
