Re: QSYSObjectPathName Problem

I have a problem using QSYSObjectPathName. When I use the QSYSObjectPathName

QSYSObjectPathName path = new QSYSObjectPathName("%ALL%", "TEST",
"DTAARA");
CharacterDataArea dataArea = new CharacterDataArea(system,
path.getPath());

Well, the QSYSObjectPathName object is working properly ... the results of path.getPath() is '/QSYS.LIB/%ALL%.LIB/TEST.DTAARA'.

The thing is, %ALL% is not a valid library ... I think using %ALL% is only valid when you are trying to search for an object, not when you are trying to instantiate a specific object.

Even if it did work ... would you want to have to wait for the system to search every library on the system to find a single data area?

I would suggest you find a way to determine the library the data area is in.
