Re: Help needed with qsycusra API

[John McKay <jmckay@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Marie,

I agree with the previous contributors, in that the error parameter can 
be better defined.

I have copied the relevant bits of code here ...

 * Interface for the API...
D QSyCUsrA        PR                  ExtPgm('QSYCUSRA')
D  AuthIndicatPR                 1A
D  UserProfilePR                10A   const
D  QualObjectPR                 20A   const
D  ObjectTypePR                 10A   const
D  AuthorityPR                 110A   options(*varsize)
D  AuthCountPR                  10I 0 const
D  CallLevelPR                  10I 0 const
D  ErrorCodePR                        likeds(szerrds)

...

D szerrds         ds
D   szerror                    256
D     szerrprov                 10i 0 overlay(szerror)
D     szerrret                  10i 0 overlay(szerror: *next)
D     szerrmsg                   7    overlay(szerror: *next)
D     szerrres                   1    overlay(szerror: *next)
D     szerrdata                240    overlay(szerror: *next)

...

QSyCUsrA(AuthIndicator:
         UserProfile:
         QualObject:
         ObjectType:
         Authority:
         AuthCount:
         CallLevel:
         SzErrDs);

If there is an error, field szerrmsg wil contain the message id in the 
form xxxnnnn, which you can look up using WRKMSGF QCPFMSG.
Otherwise, szerrmsg wil be blank.

I am down in Lmerick and you can contact me directly if I can be of more 
help.
