Hi Rob -
That last paragraph sounds like nit picking. From a "users" perspective,
we being the users of Larry's code, we can access some other jobs qtemp.
How it does it is not that important.
I don't think I'm being nit-picky. If Larry could do exactly what he said
he could do, that would be a serious security issue. As I see it, there is
a significant difference between accessing the QTEMP of another job and
persuading that other job to access it on your behalf. The former should
not be possible above the MI level. The latter can be done at least two
different ways (the TRCJOB way and the break-handling program way) and
probably more. But normal security applies to the latter methods.
Another comment, even with Larry's method (and the break-handling program
method and any other method of that type) there are limitations. For
example, you can't DSPPFM to your screen of a file in another job's
QTEMP. If you run that command, the display is going to appear at the
target job. You have to copy the file to a regular library or output to a
spooled file and look at that spooled file (in the target job's spooled
files, not your own job's). If you weren't going through the target job,
these limitations wouldn't exist.
