I wrote a program that uses the QGYRHRL (QgyRtvHdwRscList) API yesterday. The purpose is to find all of the workstation devices on the system. However, only two devices are found; trust me, we have more than two workstation devices here. And, incidentally, neither of the workstations it retrieves is listed when I use WRKCFGSTS *DEV. No printer is retrieved; we have twinax, network, and emulated printers all on our system; all of which show upon using the WRKCFGSTS command.



Originally I tried limiting the API to retrieve just the local work station resources (Category = 3). When that didn't work, I changed the program to retrieve all hardware resources (Category = 1). Same result plus, of course, all cards, disks, etc.


I even downloaded a program from the web that had the API. When I ran it, I got the same result (only the two displays previously listed). The sample output, which accompanied the program on the web site, indicated that individual display and printer devices are retrieved; just didn't on my system (which, by the way, is at V5R4).


The only thing that I have been able to come up with is that we run under the 36 environment, but I don't see how that could have an effect. An object is an object, ain't it?


Any clues gratefully and humbly accepted.


Thanks.
