Re: I think I've asked before: easy way for ILE RPG program to know whether it's running in a batch job or an interactive job?

Buck,

The TYPE value for RTVJOBA returns '1' for INT jobs and '0' for everything
else, I believe. I can't think that any of the other types could be an
interactive job, under any meaningful definition of the word 'interactive'
as it applies to jobs on the i.

QUSRJOBI, JOBI0100, Job Type and Job Subtype.
A reasonable question is what do YOU consider to be a batch job?

ASJ (Autostart)
BCH (Batch)
BCI (Batch immediate)
EVK (Started by a program start request)
INT (Interactive)
M36 (AS/400 Advanced 36 machine server)
MRT (Multiple requester terminal)
PJ (Prestart job)
PDJ (Print driver job)
RDR (Reader)
SYS (System)
SBS (Subsystem monitor)
WTR (Writer)
blank (Alternative user subtype--not an active job)
