Hi.
I want to create a crude "how is the system" monitor for long time
production surveillance as an extra tool complementing the native AS/400
tools, and to learn more about the system.
My initial idea was to examine WRKSYSSTS values by calling the
underlying QWCRSSTS API, and it quickly turned out that the simplest way
to manipulate the binary structures is to use the corresponding PCML
file with the ProgramCall* methods instead of building everything by
hand. Unfortunately it also turned out that I could not locate a
suitable source for API PCML files - you are basically told to generate
them when compiling your own files but IBM apparently have hidden their
own PCML files so well that I could not find them. The obvious place
would be at the "API finder"-page in the infocenter either with each API
or as a general download.
What is your usual approach to getting these PCML files for a given
OS/400 release? I am thinking in terms of "given any API name, please
return the corresponding PCML file"?
I will appreciate any pointers.
