Re: Difference with Source and compiled objects

For ILE PGMs you need 2 APIs, one for SRVPGMS and the other for a main PGM. Both those APIs give you the sourcePF and time of creation.

Then RTVMBRD API or using an SQL view (PARTIOTION something, name is not actually related to members) and retrieve the last change timestamp of the sourceMBR.

Then do the comparison.

When you STRDBG against an RPG program you will get a message that the
source file has been changed.

Is there a way that you can find those out programmatically?

We have 12 files on our system that were created in V7R1 that have
incorrect level ID's. The programs reference this incorrect level ID. But
when they are sync'd to our HA machine, the HA software resets the identity
value, and that corrects the member level.

IBM was able to fix one of the files in production by using STRSST and
editing the PF object, but there are still others where they are stumped.
We had an IBM developer on the line from 11pm to 1am Friday night poking
around.

I'm as confident as one can be that sources are clean and a recompile won't
cause any problems, but all it takes is one person to cast doubt and now I
can't recommend we do that unless we can confirm what's not compiled.

Thanks for any suggestions
