Thanks to all for the input:
Yes ACS and Run SQL Scripts does fix the issue.
I actually did a CAST on PATH_NAME and got the expected result as well, going to put this in a CL with a RUNSQL.
Yes I could create a stored procedure and execute the statement from there without a CAST.

You are not missing anything ... except you are running the statement with STRSQL!
STRSQL is stabilized since Release V4R5 (not a typo!) all newer enhancements in SQL are NOT supported.
Install ACS (IBM i Access Client Solutions) and run the SQL Statement with "Run SQL Scripts"

Subject: IFS_OBJECT_STATISTIC what am I dong wrong/missing
When I do:
SELECT PATH_NAME FROM TABLE
(QSYS2.IFS_OBJECT_STATISTICS(START_PATH_NAME => '/tmp/.com_ibm_tools_attach', SUBTREE_DIRECTORIES => 'YES', OBJECT_TYPE_LIST => '*DIR'))
I get this:
PATH_NAME
*POINTER
*POINTER
*POINTER
*POINTER
*POINTER
*POINTER
*POINTER
*POINTER
When I do:
WRKLNK OBJ('/tmp/.com_ibm_tools_attach/*') DETAIL(*EXTENDED) DSPOPT(*ALL)
I get this:
Object link Type
. DIR
.. DIR
132 DIR
133 DIR
135 DIR
136 DIR
137 DIR
15 DIR
7100 DIR
Why am I getting *POINTER instead of the directory name?
Thanks,
Monty
