Re: dspobjd problem with *libl, *usrlibl

["Keith Carpenter" <CarpCon@xxxxxxx>]

Are you sure this worked for you before ?

>From the help text for DSPOBJD:
"Depending on the specified library qualifier, either the first object found
in the specified libraries
is shown, or all objects in the specified libraries for which the user has
some authority are shown."

More specifically,
*LIBL or *USRLIBL returns the first object
*ALL or *ALLUSR returns all authorized

Checking both V4R5 and V5R2, I get the same result (first object only).

I agree it would seem to be a bug as it doesn't make any sense to limit the
results this way.  But given it's documented, this is probably the
established behavior going all back to the beginning on the S/38.  For IBM
to fix it now would mean possibly breaking a lot of existing customer code.

One work around might be to use a wild card (ie QMNUSRC*) and then filter
the results for the specific name (QMNUSRC).  Otherwise, you might consider
using an API like QUSLOBJ.

Subject: dspobjd problem with *libl, *usrlibl


At V5R2, cume 04077 applied, I am not getting proper results from DSPOBJD
command
in both command line and outfile results (or else I'm really blind today).
My *libl has multiple libs with QMNUSRC file (here of a few from WRKF
FILE(*LIBL/QMNUSRC) )
QMNUSRC     QGPL        PF
QMNUSRC     CHG402      PF
QMNUSRC     #LIB402     PF
QMNUSRC     AP402       PF
QMNUSRC     AR402MOD    PF
QMNUSRC     AR402       PF

DSPOBJD OBJ(*LIBL/QMNUSRC) OBJTYPE(*FILE) says only 1 library in *libl has
object!
                      Display Object Description - Basic
                                                                Library 1 of
1
Library  . . . . . . :   QGPL            Library ASP device . :   *SYSBAS
Opt  Object      Type      Attribute               Size  Text
     QMNUSRC     *FILE     PF                      8192  Default source file
f


but this works with same libl: DSPOBJD OBJ(ap402/QMNUSRC) OBJTYPE(*FILE)
 Library  . . . . . . :   AP402           Library ASP device . :   *SYSBAS
 Opt  Object      Type      Attribute               Size  Text
      QMNUSRC     *FILE     PF                   1196032

This is breaking my xref programs.
Have searched ptfs for v5r2 and see no match.
Anyone ideas? Unfortunately this is a "managed" system
and doubtful I can make a support call.
