Re: CLP - coding qualified object references

Dave:

This reply is w/o benefit of having an AS/400 to test with on a Sunday
morning. However, I believe that if you add one line of code to the program,
checking for a blank *jobd library, and filling in the value '*LIBL', it
should work.  I inserted the line in your program, below.

/* CLLE or CLP source member named TEST, compiled as a program */
pgm (&JobD &JobDLib)
dcl &JobD       *char 10
dcl &JobDLib    *char 10

If COND(&JobDLib *eq '  ') then(CHGVAR VAR(&JobDLib value('*LIBL'))

             ?          SBMJOB CMD(chgjob runpty(40)) JOB(testjob) +
                          JOBD(&jobdlib/&jobd)
                        MONMSG CPF6801  /* user pressed F12 to cancel */
endpgm
