I think I figured out the answer two seconds after I hit the Send button: SchedInfo in the original has to be Qualified, right?

Subject: API Question
First off, I've only written a two or three programs with API's before this week, and those were simple retrieves.
But I've been going around and around, etc., trying to get my first List API to work. I could tell that it was working as far as building the list in the user space because debug showed me that it had the number of entries that I expected (FWIW the API in question is QWCLSCDE for the default Job Scheduler). But nothing showed up when I went to retrieve an entry.
The basic portions of the program that are, I think, relevant are:
D/copy qsysinc/qrpglesrc,qwclscde
D SchedInfo DS Based(pSchedInfo)
D LikeDS(QWCL010000)
The program, however, kept getting blanks in all of the qwc... data elements until I changed the program to:
D*/copy qsysinc/qrpglesrc,qwclscde
D SchedInfo DS Based(pSchedInfo)
D qwcis 1 1a
D qwcjn 2 11a
D qwcenbr 12 21a
D qwcsd 22 31a
(etc.)
Obviously the methods are not equivalent, but I thought that the LikeDS copied the fields from the qsysinc member. I use QUSEC to copy in the standard API error structure with the LikeDS, and it seems to work fine.
Actually, the subject line is probably in error or misleading as this is probably an ILE RPG question. I'm probably going to hate myself in the morning (or perhaps earlier), but what is wrong with the first method?
