RE: [MI400] Displaying objects in other job's QTEMP library

Walden,

Sorry, I missed a lot of the current thread.

Where did you get ADPQTEMP from? To state that another way, where can I get
it?

True. But for mere mortal programmers like me that don't want to live in
MI-land all the time, it would be easier to call 'Adopt QTEMP':

ADPQTEMP (123456/USER/JOB)

Which would drop me at a command prompt. From here I could use the 'normal'
OS/400 commands to work with qtemp. Things like 'WRKOBJPDM' and 'DSPLIB' and
even call programs that use objects in QTEMP. I know I could screw up the
other job, but I as the programmer should take that responsibility.

This 'command prompt' would have a exit handler that would reset the QTEMP
pointer so I can't screw up things.

you don't want to mess with the changing your job, you can just copy the
pointer and use that to after the objects in the library pointed to.
