RE: APIs

["Stone, Brad V (TC)" <bvstone@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Anything's possible.  You could watch the call stack of certain system
jobs or purchases software to watch for APIs.  But then you'd have the
problem of figuring out what parameters are needed, if it uses a users
space, etc.

I'd definatly use the manual for APIs.  A lot of them have hidden values
for parameters, format of data, error code meanings, etc.

        I guess it depends on who (or is that whom?) I ask.  Seriously,
another 
        programmer asked me about this & I told her I'd throw it out to
the 
        experts. She wondered if there was some way to get that
information from 
        the system she's on.

        Well, without looking yourself, you could ask someone, but I'd
say you'd
        be out of luck.

                Is there anyway to find out what APIs are available with
a
        certain release without looking in the System API Reference?
