Re: [IBMiOSS] QIBM_QSH_CMD_ESCAPE_MSG

Stack your commands

dothis && dothat && doanother

&& means "proceed If the previous code was 0" in Unix

Hi All,

In order to trap QSH errors, I've been setting QIBM_QSH_CMD_ESCAPE_MSG

to Y

as a Job level Environmental Variable and it works swimmingly when I call
QSH with a single command.

But my testing seems to indicate that if I pass several semicolon

separated

commands to QSH (directly in the CMD parameter), the Escape Message is
based on whether the LAST command had exit status 0 or not.

So my simple cunning plan, that at the first sign of trouble, QSH would
stop executing commands and send me a nice Escape Message I could monitor
for has fallen at the first hurdle.

I can see the errors in STDOUT which I've overridden.

I'm guessing that to get the behaviour I want (stop executing commands

and

notify the caller via an escape message at the first error), I'll need to
use a script instead?

Thanks kindly,
Craig
