Re: Can SEP do this?

DAVID

LOL! Yesterday I was debugging in STRDBG some code where I am retrieving the command definition using the API, QDCRCMDD (or QCDRCMDD). It returns an XML representation of the parameters, etc. Well, it's in ASCII, so it looks like no language known when I EVAL the variable.

*éÄÀä<ä_À*àèàîÁÊËÑ?>********ä_À*ä_À+/_Á*äç.|â¢ñãë**ä_À<ÑÂ** (for the bright blobs I used asterisks here!!)

So I presses F1, to see if there is any way I can specify a CCSID. Lo and behold, there is a option, :a [length] that will display the variable in ASCII!!!

<QcdCLCmd DTDVersion="1.0"><Cmd CmdName="CHKOBJIFS" CmdLib="

Much better!

There is also one for Unicode.

F1 is our friend, right up there with F4 and F9.

Thanks Vern,

That prompted me to press F1 on the command line and amaze myself on what I didn't know. Now to continue, I think I'll switch to Midrange-l.

I don't know what happens when using the WDSC/RDi debugger or the jt400 Graphical Debugger, but if you set an SBREAK in STRDBG, you get a message for every job that runs the program under the specified user. You get to respond and let them fly through if you want, but the job is waiting for you to respond.
