RE: Record Lock message -- RPG400-L

Rajeev,

CPF message IDs are in the SDS at 40-46.  I could not remember exactly what
the message ID was.  CPF5027 may not have been correct.  What message ID is
in 40-46 when you get the "record 8989 already locked by job" message? What
about the other message IDs I posted?  We use to do this in our
telemarketing programs when we wanted to present the next available record
to the user.  We now have moved away from record presentation and
telemarketing.  The code has been archived so I cannot just look it up.  My
memory is also failing me..

Chris,

Though I'm able to pull Message Desciption- "record 8989 already locked by
job"
, I'm unable to get Message ID value CPF5027. Is there anything special I
need
to do?

Thanks,
Rajeev.

OVRDBF FILE(YOUR FILE) WAITRCD(*IMMED) This will cause the program to error
immediate.  In your CHAIN/READx statement put an indicator in the error
position.  When this error is on, test for message CPF5027, CPF5032 &
CPF9853.  The program status data structure hold the Job that has the lock
on the record.  See the message file QCPFMSG for detail on the format of
these messages.  I do not remember exactly which one is presented.  Check
your job logs for the message you get when a record is locked.  Position
40-46 holds the cpf message id and 91-170 hold the message data.  Another
trick to skip the locked record and advanced to the next record is to SETGT
on the key of the locked record and then do your reade.  This is great for
having multiple users working on the first available record in a group. i.e.
telemarketing.

Hi All,

In my application, if someone is using a record and someone else is trying
to
use it, a message should be displayed immediatly stating the same together
with
the user's name who is holding the record.
What can be the better way to do this?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Rajeev.
