Re: Help with QSYCUSRA API - Check User Authority -- RPG400-L

Okay - Thanks for your help!

Here's the new code (for the archives), and it's working now...

// Interface for the API...
D QSyCUsrA PR ExtPgm('QSYCUSRA')
D 1A CONST Authority Indicator
D 10A CONST Profile Name
D 20A CONST Qualified Object Nam
e
D 10A CONST Object Type
D 110A CONST Authority
D 10i 0 Number of Authorites
D 10i 0 Call Level
D * Error Code

D AuthYN S 1A
D ObjType S 10A
D Authority S 110A
D AuthNbr S 10i 0 INZ(1)
D CallLevel S 10i 0
D ErrorCode S *

D Response S 1A

/Free

//AUTHYN = 'N';
ObjType = '*FILE ';
Authority = '*CHANGE ';

QSyCUsrA(AuthYN:'USERID ':'FILENAME LIBRARY ':ObjType:
Authority:AuthNbr:CallLevel:ErrorCode);

DSPLY AUTHYN ;

*INLR = *On;

/End-Free

I also had to take the Varying off of the Authority parameter.

Thanks for your all of your help.

Re: Help with QSYCUSRA API - Check User Authority

your prototype is severely off. char(*) in the IBM documentation means
it's a variable character data not a pointer (which is what you have the
parms defined as)

my prototype would be more like this:
D QSyCUsrA PR ExtPgm('QSYCUSRA')
d authindicator 1a
d userprofile 10a const
d qualobject 20a const
d objecttype 10a const
d authority 110a options(*varsize)
d authcount 10i 0 const
d calllevel 10i 0 const
d errorcode 500a options(*varsize)

Thanks,

Re: Help with QSYCUSRA API - Check User Authority

Also, I see what could be a problem is the 4B 0 definitions. Change them
to
*10I 0* (integer).

QSyCUsrA(AuthYN:'USERID':'LIBRARY/FILENAME':'*FILE':
Authority:AuthNbr:CallLevel:ErrorCode);

DSPLY AUTHYN ;

*INLR = *On;

/End-Free

But when I run it, I get the message CPF22F7 Number of authorities must

between 1 and 11. A value of 120064 was specified.

I'm using the info at

http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/iseries/v5r2/ic2924/index.htm?info/apis/QSYCUSRA.htm

to get the required parameter goup.

I assume that I'm doing something wrong with my AuthNbr definition, but
I'm not sure.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!
