Re: Ending Interactive Subsystem

["Jeffrey M. Silberberg" <silbrbrg@xxxxxxxxxx>]

  Well, I have used the SHTDN for many years in APPC and Data Queue 
programs that start with the subsystem and run until the subsystem ends, 
or the communication link fails. 

  Now the problem is that the ILE/C compiler, for some reason ??, does
not support the signal processing necessary to do the same simple 
processing in TCP/IP and other ILE/C based code.
