Re: C access to a job's spooled files -- MIDRANGE-L

Ok I found the API call and have NO idea how to use it. The documentation and the header file seem to conflict.

I call it as follows: QUSRJOBI( &(JOBI300 type structure ), sizeof(JOBI0300), "JOBI0300", "<some job name>", "16 spaces" );

I assertained the "some job name" and the "16 spaces" from what I did find out this API call from inside some RPG code.

This does not work at all, and I get a "Job name specified not valid" before I get a CPF code ( Im assuming something like a core dump in UNIX ).

I was assuming that I would put into the last 2 parameters for this API ( Qualified job name and Internal Job Identifier ) that values returned from Qp0wGetJobID( pid, job_id_structure ), but I guess that is not the case.

Any idea how to fill in the paramters for QUSRJOBI, and maybe a snipet of C code of how to go to a pid returned by spawn(), to getting a launched job's information?

TIA!

You can use them in C, the headers are in QSYSINC/H.
