Subject:        QPDSPLIB ?!

Assuming you want the layout of *PRTF QPDSPLIB so that you can process
the report in an application, I would recommend you instead look at
using the List Objects (QUSLOBJ) API if you want the object list or
the Retrieve Library Description (QLIRLIBD) API if you want the library
size, number of objects, authorities, etc.  Both APIs can be found in
the Object APIs chapter of the System API Reference.

*PRTFs are not considered formal programming interfaces by OS/400 and
as such can change without warning across release (or sometimes even
PTF) boundaries.  *PRTFs are also often tranlated into other languages
as you move from one country/language to another so you cannot rely
upon column headings or even column positions.  Most developers find
these two considerations to be sufficient to avoid *PRTF application
processing if at all possible.  As DSPLIB does not provide for *OUTFILE
support then using the appropriate APIs is the way to go.

If you need the details of QPDSPLIB for some non-application reason
I would appreciate more detail on your needs.  Though I doubt you
are going to get, from IBM anyway, much more detail on the *PRTF
(in terms of encouraging you to use it that is).
