RE: MCH1210 error in QGYOLSPL api

The open list APIs don't use a user space but rather return variables. To
use a user space (which imo would be a unnecessary pain in the butt) you'd
have to get the return data THEN update the user space with the info.

Have you tried replacing Receiver/ v_RcvVar (65535a) with a user
space? You may be overflowing the receiver size. What is
v_RcvVarLen's value?

Gary

Gary,

How would I do it to a user space? I was trying to get away from using a
user space because when I was using the QUSLSPL api I was receiving an
error because I was filling up the user space because we have so many
spool files.

When running the program in debug the value of v_RcvVarLen is 65535 before

the api is executed.

V_RCVVARLEN = 65535

Thanks,
Mike Garrison

I have the following program (subset of the actual program but this
will compile for demonstration purposes) using the QGYOLSPL api to
retrieve a list of the spool files on our systems. When I run the
program it is crashing with escape error message MCH1210 Receiver
value too small to hold result which is not listed in the
documentation for the QGYOLSPL api.
We are at v6r1.

Does anyone have any thoughts as to why I am receiving the error

message?

I have tried numerous things including copying from posted on the
net and without success I am now definitely into the WAG stage.

Thanks,
