Hello James,
While there are a number of spaces related to SEU in QTEMP the ability to
recover the source from the last
edit session is due to a copy being placed in a *MSCSP space (type 19 subtype
EE) referenced via the
QEDITSPACES *MSCSP space in the QRECOVERY library.
View the following in a small fixed-pitch font.
Open a file from one job using SEU and then __from another job__ issue:
DMPSYSOBJ OBJ(QRECOVERY) CONTEXT(QSYS) OBJTYPE(*LIB)
examine the spooled file created and you'll see something like the following:

What we care about here is the pointer to the space with the data. The space
is not in a context so cannot be
addressed by name. Issue the following command to get at it:
DMPSYSOBJ OBJ(QEDITSPACES) CONTEXT(QRECOVERY) TYPE(19) SUBTYPE(EE)

examine the spooled file created and you'll see something like the following:

Oops, the object is locked so we can't dump it. Never mind, kill the original
job with the SEU editor open --
close the emulator window, switch off the terminal, or issue an ENDJOB command.
Now dump the object:

examine the spooled file created and you'll see something like the following:

So now you know how to find the spaces using system supplied tools. You should
be able to create an MI or ILE
C program that can access the space. If it runs within the SEU job you won't
have object lock problems.
However we need to know if the space is in the system or user domain. So we
fire up SST and using the address
of the object (0CCAB226AA 000000) we dump it and see:
SEGMENT HEADER (YYSGHDR)
TYPE 0001 SIZE 0048 NEWFLAGS 00 FLAGS 80 DOMAIN 8000 OBJECT
0CCAB226AA 000000 SPACE
0CCAB226AA 001000
Oh dear, DOMAIN is x'8000', which means System Domain so unless you know how to
give your programs the System
State attribute you can't access this space at security levels above 30. Rats,
darn! heeheeheeheee ....
Regards,
Simon Coulter.
