Re: More CPYFRMIMPF question - Monitor for bad path...

Vernon,

Thanks anyway, but that's way too much work for a simple existance check.
:) I'll just check the file for zero records after the copy and be done
with it.

Thanks!

Rick

---original message---
There's an API that can test for the existence of an object in IFS - it's
called "access". You can use it in ILE RPG but not CLLE.

return_value = access(path, 4)

is about it. return_value is 0 if exists, -1 if not.

Anyone know the SRVPGM for this? It's from unistd.h
