Re: "Write to Job Log" API?

There *used to be* a great video available on how to use it from System i
Network: http://systeminetwork.com/tuesdaytips

Unfortunately, I can't find it anymore, I think it was before their July
2008 cutoff date.

Here is the prototype I use, inspired by that video:

D JobLog PR EXTPROC('Qp0zLprintf')
D pMsg * VALUE
D OPTIONS(*STRING)
D pS1 * VALUE
D OPTIONS(*NOPASS:*STRING)
D pS2 * VALUE
D OPTIONS(*NOPASS:*STRING)
D pS3 * VALUE
D OPTIONS(*NOPASS:*STRING)
D pS4 * VALUE
D OPTIONS(*NOPASS:*STRING)
D pS5 * VALUE
D OPTIONS(*NOPASS:*STRING)
D pS6 * VALUE
D OPTIONS(*NOPASS:*STRING)


And this is how I call it:

JobLog('Log This!!'+LF );


(LF is declared as constant X'25')

Subject: "Write to Job Log" API?

Hi, Folks:



Maybe I dreamed it, but it seems like a few days ago I saw a reply message
on this list that said something like "If all you want to do is write to
the
job log, just call <this api>." Now usually, I will use QMHSNDPM for this
purpose, but it sparked my interest that there might be another way. I
tabled it because I was busy and cannot now locate that message (even in
the
Midrange archives). And I didn't see anything matching that description on
the publib.boulder.ibm.com pages.



Any help? Did I dream it? Is QMHSNDPM adequate to the purpose, or might
there be a better way at V5?
