RE: Check if Qshell interpreter is installed, programatically

Bruce,

You are right (also could be other reasons the library is there)
So I did this and it worked perfectly

Thanks

John

To avoid the (however small) possibility that someone has created the
library QSHELL and not actually loaded option 30 you should use the
Retrieve Product Information API checking for the status of option 30.
This sample CLP will display the current status of option 30:

             PGM
             DCL        VAR(&RCVVAR) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(256)
             CALL QSZRTVPR (&RCVVAR X'00000100' 'PRDR0100' +
                            '*OPSYS *CUR  0030*CODE     ' 0)
             SNDPGMMSG  MSG(%SST(&RCVVAR 44 10)) TOPGMQ(*EXT)
             ENDPGM

Hi John,

Library QSHELL is part of SS1 Option 30. Check for it:
             CHKOBJ OBJ(QSYS/QSHELL) OBJTYPE(*LIB)
If it fails, you will get message CPF9801.

HTH.

Jan.
