RE: RNX0356 Document for DATA-INTO does not match RPG Variable

These Data Structures suck...

So I added a message field of my own to the end of the DS:

/include qsysinc/qrpglesrc,qmhrtvm // QMHRTVM API data structures

dcl-ds Error qualified;
rcvm0200 likeds(QMHM020000);
Message char(3000);
end-ds;

The DS field QMHLDRTN00 has a description (in the /include) of " Length Data Returned"

Through trial and error I discovered that this value is the length of the first part of the message... The actual Message and Cause from the job log BEGIN at one position beyond that (QMHLDRTN00 + 1).

Has anyone worked with these enough to confirm this? It just doesn’t make sense to me given the IBM field description in the source file and online.

Gotcha... is this DS defined somewhere already (preferably in free format)?
