James,

Do it the same way that the SAVCHGOBJ command does it, by using the library's changed object list.

See:
    https://www.mcpressonline.com/programming/rpg/uncover-the-secret-of-the-changed-object-list-col


Or, just create a data area to track the last date/time you checked, and then issue a SAVCHGOBJ from that date/time, to a temporary save file (e.g. QTEMP/SAVF) and update that data area with the current date/time.

Then you can use DSPSAVF or the QSRLSAVF API to interrogate what was saved (changed). See:

    https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/i/7.4?topic=ssw_ibm_i_74/apis/qsrlsavf.htm

HTH,

Mark S. Waterbury

Does anybody know of an easy way, without going through every object and
every file member individually, for a CL program to determine whether
anything has changed in a library?
