RE: Job Parameters

Hi Caesar,

Easiest way would be to add a RTVJOBA command to your CL program instead of
passing it parameters. If the CL program can't be changed, the COBOL program
could call a CL program that did the RTVJOBA and then called the actual CL
program.

If you really need to get that info in the COBOL program, you can use the
QUSRJOBI API to do it.

I can dig up COBOL code to call that API if you need it.

Have fun!
Richard

Subject: Job Parameters


Hi,
Is there any way or structure inside a COBOL program,
to obtain the Job Name, User Name, Job Number, etc.
like the SDS structure of an RPG program?
I need to invoke a CL program from COBOL
passing this parameters.

Thanks for any Help.
Regards,
Caesar A.
