Re: System Entry Point Table...SEPT.

["Simon Coulter" <shc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Don,

The SEPT just contains pointers (and authorisations -- yeah, I know, but I'm 
not going into 
that one again) to programs.  You can see what the SEPT contains by dumping it.

A job's QTEMP is found from its WCB either in the job itself or the WCBT.  You 
can use any job 
to get addressability to your WCB (based off the PCO) and from there find the 
WCBT and then 
search that for the job you really want.  I'm not sure how the higher security 
levels will 
affect this.

A bit messy but not too hard -- although harder than it used to be since the 
WCBT is no longer 
a single object.  I have some old code that did this but I haven't updated it 
for the WCBT 
changes.

Regards,
Simon Coulter.
