Re: How to display data of an IFS file using rpgle program

I like the QSH thing, it can even be done directly without the override - it's a little odd for users not used to the QShell interface.

But instead of WRKLINK, use the DSPF command - that is what is used by the 5 option in WRKLNK. F3 takes you back to your program.

I created this CL for that purpose:

PGM PARM(&PATH)
DCL VAR(&PATH) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(32)

CD DIR(&PATH)
DLTF FILE(QTEMP/IFSFILELST)
MONMSG MSGID(CPF2105)
OVRDBF FILE(STDOUT) TOFILE(QTEMP/IFSFILELST) +
OVRSCOPE(*CALLLVL)
QSH CMD('ls -l *.*')
DLTOVR FILE(STDOUT) LVL(*)

/*call the program that uses a SFL to display content of file IFSFILELST */
CALL PGM(PGMWithDSP) PARM(&PATH)

DLTF FILE(QTEMP/IFSFILELST)
MONMSG MSGID(CPF2105)

Hi All,

This is regarding a program I am writing where in I am using RPGLE
program to interact with IFS files.

I want to give users a way to see data received in IFS files from my
5250 display screen, when he selects "SHOW DATA" option.


Its already working if I implement WRKLNK command in rpgle program.
However the problem is WRKLNK is it takes you to the directory level
first then one has to select OPT 5 = DISPLAY to see the data of IFS file.

Here I am looking for a way so that I can directly display the data
screen of IFS file instead of WRKLNK directory screen.

Any thoughts suggestion will be much appreciated.


Thank you in advance !

Regards,
Kuldeep.
