Re: ALCOBJ API?

Actually If I'm going to use SQL...I'd just use the LOCK TABLE command...

STRSQL
call qcmdexc('DLCOBJ OBJ((ROB/A *FILE *EXCL))')
DSPJOB OPTION(*JOBLCK)

You can embed that.
The command api's give you a bit more control over the error handling. Or,
just do it differently. But if this fills your sails it might be ok.

because I want to call it from within an RPG program...

Yes I know I could use one of the command call APIs to call ALCOBJ...

And yes I know I could create a CLLE module around it...

I just thought it'd be nicer if IBM already had an API.

I do not know of any. Why not use the command?

My google-fu is failing me...

Is there an API equivalent of the ALCOBJ command?

I found this, but it's a bit more lower level than I really want to use.
