Re: Is there an easy way to retrieve the user-ID in an iseries COBOL ILE pgm?

Joel:

Just write a simple little CLLE module that looks like this:

PGM PARM(&USER)
DCL &USER *CHAR 10
RTVUSRPRF USRPRF(*CURRENT) RTNUSRPRF(&USER)
RETURN
ENDPGM

Compile it with CRTCLMOD, and bind that *MODULE into your CBLLE program, and CALL it, when you need the current user profile.

HTH,

Mark S. Waterbury

I have seen two methods:


1) Pass it into the pgm as a parm

2) Use the PSDS and force an error as described in http://www.itjungle.com/fhg/fhg050113-story02.html


Is there a better, cleaner, more intuitive method?


Thanks
