Re: Library lists vs Run SQL Scripts

FTFM...

Unqualified function resolution: When a function is invoked with only a
function
name, the database manager needs to search more than one schema to resolve
the function instance to execute. The SQL path contains the list of schemas
to
search. For each schema in the SQL path (see “SQL path” on page 64), the
database manager selects candidate functions.

If the SQL path is not explicitly specified, the SQL path is the system path
followed by the run-time authorization ID of the statement.

On my system,
select current_path from sysibm.sysdummy1;

Returns '*LIBL'.

When connected using *SYS naming and "Default SQL schema = Use library list
from server job"

select * from qsys2.library_list_info;
returns the library list I expect

select * from table(mylib.myudtf()) as X;
works
but this fails if mylib in not in the *LIBL
select * from table(myudtf()) as X;

But if I add MYLIB to my library list, then it works just fine.

cl: addlible routines;
select * from qsys2.library_list_info;
values MYFUNCTION(...);

But this works
values ROUTINES.MYFUNCTION(...);

Why is that?
