Re: Some fine points of dealing with Telnet jobs

James,

I asked that 3 years ago in this thread:

http://archive.midrange.com/mi400/200207/msg00177.html

and Gene Gaunt provided a MI solution in his reply, which is at

http://archive.midrange.com/mi400/200207/msg00202.html

which returns a timestamp of the last WS I/O for the job.  The
timestamp can be converted using the QWCCVTDT api.

AFAIK, you can only do that by not having the MSGQ allocated to the
first session.  That is, use CHGPRF DLVRY(*HOLD) instead of *NOTIFY or
*BREAK.
