RE: Error Handling for QCMDEXC

[Scott Klement <klemscot@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Rob,

I agree that missing the library/name of the message file is major flaw in
the API error structure, and has caused me grief many times in the past!

I don't think that the MSG or SECLVL data are needed, however.  Those two
items would take up a significant amount of memory, and for every API to
have to add code to populate them seems a little silly when we can easily
retrieve them w/QMHRTVM if we want them -- or simply send a program
message to our caller.

But in order to really use the API error structure with either QMHRTVM or
with QMHSNDPM, we REALLY need that message file name and library!!
