RE: SNDPGMMSG from HLL program

["Chevalier, Rick" <Rick.Chevalier@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Jeff,

My vote is for the QMHSNDPM API.  I placed it into a module about a year ago
for a small project and am amazed at how often I have used it for other
projects since then.  Because the code has been in use for a year I don't
need to test it over again when I use it so it cuts down on development time
also.

Subject:        SNDPGMMSG from HLL program

I want to send a message via SNDPGMMSG from an RPG4 program.  SNDPGMMSG
is allowed in CL programs but not HLL programs.  I want the message
queue to look 'clean' meaning like this:


                          Display Messages
                                              System:   DILGARD
Queue . . . . . :   ORDERS        Program . . . . :   *DSPMSG
   Library . . . :     QUSRSYS       Library . . . :
Severity  . . . :   00            Delivery  . . . :   *HOLD

Type reply (if required), press Enter.
   This is the message I want to send from a HLL.
   This is another message I want to send from a HLL.
   This is a 3rd message I want to send from a HLL.
   This is a 4th message I want to send from a HLL.
   This is a 5th message I want to send from a HLL.

(I adjusted the above so it hopefully won't wrap.)



If I use the SNDMSG command (which is allowed from a HLL), the message
queue looks cluttered, like this:


                          Display Messages
                                              System:   DILGARD
Queue . . . . . :   ORDERS        Program . . . . :   *DSPMSG
   Library . . . :     QUSRSYS       Library . . . :
Severity  . . . :   00            Delivery  . . . :   *HOLD

Type reply (if required), press Enter.

(Note all the "From" lines in there.)


How can I do a 'lean & clean' message send?

Thanks.
