Re: Message in MessageSubfile not displaying in Service Program

I believe that your problem is that you are using a service program which
means that you are using procedures.

Message queues are associated with the program name and the module name if
you are talking an OPM type of program but if you are talking an ILE type
program(Service or Regular), ie you are using procedures, the message queue
is program name(Or service program), module and procedure name! You are
most likely just sending the program and module.

The procedure name must be the name of the procedure that contains the
ExFmt as you are sending the message to the message queue associated the
program, module and procedure.

I have been writing screen programs with procedures for close to twenty
years. My solution was to write a service program does the work and which
you can send the procedure name.

I can send you a copy if you are interested. If yes, please let me know
what release level you are at.

Hello,

I've been using MessageSubfiles many times and so fat I have not had
any problems until today....

I'm Calling srvpgm B from PGM A. In this SrvPgm B I have procedure
WriteToMSGF which writes to message subfile using SNDPGMMSG:

if ErrorHappened;
%subst(msgf:1:8) = 'MSGFILEID';
msgid = 'MSGID';
pgmq = 'WRITETOMSGF';
%subst(msgq:1:7) = '*TOPGMQ';
msgdta = '';
Pgm_SNDSFMSG(msgf : msgid : pgmq : msgq : msgdta);
ENDIF;

Thing is I don't see those messages on my screen and srvpgm B has its
own Display File.
In job log I can see all messages properly and by using F1 on one of
them I can see this:

From program . . . . . . . . . : SNDMSG
From library . . . . . . . . : LANSAFD4
From module . . . . . . . . : SNDMSG
From procedure . . . . . . . : SNDMSG
From statement . . . . . . . : 1900

To program . . . . . . . . . . : PROGRAM1
To library . . . . . . . . . : LANSAFD4
To module . . . . . . . . . : PROGRAM1
To procedure . . . . . . . . : WRITETOMSGF
To statement . . . . . . . . : 79200

PROGRAM1 is name of program which calls my SRVPGM. SNDMSG is name of
CL program which run SNDPGMSG command. Do I have this problem because
srvpgm's don't have their own message queue? How I can solve this
problem? Should I switch to using some API? Please help :(

Best Regards
Filip
