Re: Creating command with variable parameters

[Brad Stone <bvstone@xxxxxxxxx>]

Here's an example from MAILTOOL.

If SENDWITH value is *MAILTOOL then it will display the MAILRTR parameter
(USEMLT)

This can be added to one or more command parameters.

....
PARM       KWD(SENDWITH) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(10) RSTD(*YES) +
             DFT(*IBMSMTP) VALUES(*MAILTOOL *IBMSMTP +
             *G4MSMAIL *G4GSMAIL) PROMPT('Send With +
             Server Type')
PARM       KWD(MAILRTR) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(64) DFT(*NONE) +
             SPCVAL((*STMF)) CASE(*MIXED) +
             PMTCTL(USEMLT) PROMPT('Mail Router')
......

USEMLT:     PMTCTL     CTL(SENDWITH) COND((*EQ '*MAILTOOL'))
