That seems like a lot of work for either a simple CL or RPG solution.

CL

RMVLIBLE TOYSTORE

RPG

I was just looking at an example Simon Hutchinson put on his website
(rpgpgm.com) using SQL.

The problem (if it really is one) is that putting SQL into RPG is a new
level of complexity that, well for those of us that have not kept up, is
somewhat daunting. The actual EXEC statements not hard, but proper error
handling is. I lost my RPG card long ago (Jon and Susan rather
non-ceremonially removed it, with valid reason I might add), and only now
really starting to use it again.

This example is as close as I can get, the work management items you cite
do
not report the library list:

-- category: IBM i Services
-- description: Librarian - Library list

--
-- Description: Ensure that the TOYSTORE library is the first library
-- in the user portion of the library list
BEGIN
DECLARE V_ROW_NUM INTEGER;
WITH CTE1(SCHEMA_NAME, ROW_NUM) AS (
SELECT SCHEMA_NAME, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY ORDINAL_POSITION) AS
ROW_NUM
FROM QSYS2.LIBRARY_LIST_INFO WHERE TYPE = 'USER'
) SELECT ROW_NUM INTO V_ROW_NUM FROM CTE1 WHERE SCHEMA_NAME = 'TOYSTORE';

IF (V_ROW_NUM IS NULL) THEN
CALL QSYS2.QCMDEXC('ADDLIBLE TOYSTORE');
ELSEIF (V_ROW_NUM > 1) THEN
BEGIN
CALL QSYS2.QCMDEXC('RMVLIBLE TOYSTORE');
CALL QSYS2.QCMDEXC('ADDLIBLE TOYSTORE');
END;
END IF;
END;

Now to code this into an RPG program with valid error handling. That will
be somewhat more challenging.

If you start out here:
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/i/7.4
And enter QUSRJOBI in the box with "Search in IBM i 7.4" you should get
exactly to what you want.

Now for my Rob moment...
IBM's hiding of "IBM i Services" under "Performance and Query
Optimization"
may have been a good idea at some time in the past, but really?
And why not use one of these instead of QUSRJOBI?

It's there no doubt, but how come IBM has to give it to me in every
language
except US English? My browser does not hide the fact that I am in the
Midwest in the US, (not all that far from Rochester MN.) so it's not like
they don't know where I am. IBMs web sites are a mess, most links don't
work, they don't fix them when you point that out, and the search in them
is
worse than ever. Makes me long for the PC based software library. It was
awful and not updated very often, but it worked. Particularly for an API
that's been around since almost before API's...



Anyone else having similar issues?
