I'm sure this is an old subject, but I never had the time to implement it.
I need to have the opportunity to do some graceful updates to a table in a
looping socket RPG program that will end when it receives an indication to
terminate. This updates a flag in a table to report that its status is
Ended. So this program does end gracefully. It also has formal commands
to start it and to end it.
But when an IPL is needed, the operator simply forgets to issue those
commands and the ending is abrupt, so the update of the status doesn't take
place.
I understand that the ENDJOB command for a job running an RPG program would
send a TERM signal to the program but the default handler (I think) would
simply force it to end with no chance to run a graceful subroutine that
does the update.
Can you please give me an example that does this?
Thanks.
