The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.

We don't. In our server architecture, the child-server job is spawned
off once the user has given an acceptable ID and password, and lasts for
as long as the user remains connected. So the way we did it may not even
be remotely relevant to what you're doing (as well as being rather
archaic, given what's available today).
As to how things work in C, for APIs called as programs, just look
through the various members in QSYSINC/H.
For example, QSYSINC/H.QUSLJOB (which is one of the places the compiler
automatically looks when you "#include <QUSLJOB.H>"), you'll find
#pragma linkage(QUSLJOB,OS,nowiden)
This tells the compiler and the linkage editor that you're calling a
program. Then you'll find a prototype for QUSLJOB, and prototypes for
the structures it uses.
At least, that's how all of this works from V4R2 through V6R1. For all I
know, they may have changed things since then, to put the headers in the
IFS.
