Re: Accessing OPT01

OPT01 is no more than another directory in the IFS. You can use the
Unix-type APIs to access it.

Is there a way to access a file on OPT01 from an RPG program?

I am researching ways to get data off of a DVD and I would like to avoid
having to copy the file from the DVD to the IFS before being able to
access the data in the file.

I have created a DKTF file but I am not sure that is the way to go.

If anyone know how to access OPT01, please let me know.
