Re: Command parameters & validity checkers

Jim,

CL Programmers guide writes :'All parameters are passed to the (validity 
checking) program the same as they are passed to the command processing 
program.
So, I assume that the "order" matters.

But can you add your validity checking program to an existing system 
command?

If you are writing your own version of CHGJOB using QSYS/CHGJOB, why 
don't you just hide the two parameters by ?-RUNPTY(12) 
?-TIMESLICE(2000).

Thanks,
Rajeev.

I am having a little brain fade......
I am trying to write a command validity checker against the
CHGJOB command to restrict use of the RUNPTY and TIMESLICE
parameters to specific groups.  2 things...
        - Are command parameters passed to the checker in the
          sequence of the command prompt or some other sequence
          (what if "Order prompt is displayed" is active??)
        - I can not seem to find any documentation as to the
          sequence of command parameters or is it "what you
          see is what you get"?

Any help is appreciated
