Re: SUBMIT JOB API

[Bryan Dietz <bdietz400@xxxxxxxxx>]

I'm not sure if this is still a need, but maybe the following would help.

I did find that there is a SPAWN tool included in QUSRTOOL. Option 7 for
57xxSS1

<help>
The Spawn Program (SPAWN) command spawns a program into a kernel
thread enabled process.  Optionally, the user issuing the SPAWN
command can pass parameters to the spawned program, can wait for the
program to finish before returning control to the caller, can start
the native debugger on the called program, and can enable User/(CPA)
tracing in the called program.

Two environment variables are set each time a program is
successfully spawned by this command: LAST_SPAWNED_JOBNAME is set to
the qualified job name of the spawned program and LAST_SPAWNED_PID
is set to its process id (pid).  This information is also reported
in a message to the joblog.
</help>
