Service Programs

Utility Service Programs that are used in various places.

SRV_MSG

Contains procedures to send messages from an RPG program.

SndMSgPgmQ: Send message to a provided program queue. (Interactive programming.)

ClrMsgPgmQ: Clear all messages from the provided program queue. (Interactive programming.)

SndEscMsg: Send provided text as an escape message. (Note that the SND-MSG opcode can replace this in newer compiler versions.)

SndInfMsg: Send provided text as info message to the external message queue. (Note that the SND-MSG opcode can replace this in newer compiler versions.)

JobLogMsg: Send provided text to the job log using Qp0zLprintf, a C function. For testing, a convenient alternative to the DSPLY opcode for longer messages.

SRV_RANDOM

Convenience procedures relating to pseudo random number generation.

Rand_Int

Return a random integer with a specified range.

SRV_STR

Contains procedures to manipulate strings in an RPG program.

CenterStr: Center a string.

SRV_SQL

Helper procedures for RPG programs using embedded SQL.

SQLProblem: For those "never should happen" SQL errors. Does DUMP(A) and sends escape message of the provided text and adds as much SQL diagnostics as will fit in a 512 byte message.

  • CRTBNDDIR

    A CLLE program to create UTIL_BND, a binding directory for easy compiling of program that use SRV_MSG.

  • SRVMSGBND

    Binder source used when creating SRV_MSG.

  • SRV_MSGTR

    RPG program to test the procedures in SRV_MSG.

  • SRV_MSGTD

    Display file used by SRV_MSGTR.

  • SRVMSGTL

    RPG program to test and demonstate JobLogMsg in SRV_MSG.

  • SRV_STRTR

    RPG program to test the procedures in SRV_STR.

SHOW

RPG program to display a 5250 message using the QUILNGTX API. Useful for testing, but possibly JobLogMsg in SRV_MSG is more useful. Really should be part of SRV_MSG.

  • SHOW_T RPG program to test & exercise SHOW.
