Re: DLYJOB in RPG

Hi Andy -

I have a series of batch jobs that if they get a record lock on update will
call a CLP program and pass it how long to do a DLYJOB and then after the
'Delay' my RPG programs will try to retrieve the record again.

My question is, instead of doing this 'DLYJOB' from a CLP can it be done
directly from within RPG? ........ API maybe????

I create a data queue in QTEMP, then call the receive data queue entry API (QRCVDTAQ) with a wait time of what I want the delay to be.

By using a data queue in QTEMP I know there will never be any entries in it.
