Re: IBM i for Wintel Hackers - Silent Signal TROOPERS24 Presentation

Patrik,

1) *LIBL searches for all called upon objects. Path only accesses executables.

2) Additionally, AFAIK, there are no built in tools to manipulate the path on Windows. You can basically set or replace it.

3) I suppose I should have said "the proper approach" instead of "alternative."

The *LIBL is a wonderful feature that is unmatched on Unix and Windows platforms. The path environment variable is a poor substitute.
Please elaborate. I can't see where both facilities are substantially different in nature.

The alternative is to have a proper authority scheme on your objects.
This is not exactly an alternative but should be the standard measure.

:wq! PoC
