Re: How to set up Library List when call RPG using ToolBox?

A couple thoughts that should help ...

When calling a program via Toolbox ProgramCall you are getting to the
program via the iSeries's DPC server. The DPC server handles both program
call and command call.  When you connect (or under the covers the Toolbox
connects for you), the server job swaps to the specified user profile.  At
that point the library list is the list set up for that user.

The Toolbox "AS400" object is responsible for connections to the iSeries.
There is a different job at the end of each connection.  A specific  AS400
object can have only one connection per service.  The job stays around
until the connection is ended.

So, if you use the same AS400 object for a series of Program and Command
calls, those calls will go to the same job.  If you want to change the
library list you can run the chglibl command via command call before
running your program.  The correct iSeries job will be changed as long as
you use the same AS400 object, and the connection does not drop between the
command call and the program call.

Subject:  How to set up Library List when call RPG using ToolBox?



What is my library list when I call RPG using ProgramCall API?
Can I call a command ADDLIBLE to add a library before using ProgramCall?
Or should I simply call a CL and have the CL PGM call RPG?

It appears that when the file and the RPG program are in the same library,
I
don't have to worry about library list.

TIA.
Bruce
