Re: Work with Spooled Files

Remember! Use the offsets! Don't hardcode "well, the actual individual
entries in the user space start out at position X". Use the offsets! When
you upgrade the OS the offset may change. For example the user space
created may be filled with
Format of the Generated List
The spooled file list consists of:
A user area
A generic header
An input parameter section
A header section
A list data section

Where the list data section begins is a variable in the generic header.
It's a common error by someone who tries to dump the user space instead of
reading the documentation.
For example you can easily see the contents of a user space with commands
like this:
wrklnk '/qsys.lib/rob.lib/*.usrspc'
and then 5 to view.
