APIs, user spaces, etc.
From MidrangeWiki
(Redirected from User space APIs)
Summary
Here's a sample of using an API which outputs to a user space in COBOL. This example lists and processes members in a file. Error handling would need to be coded.
You can either use your own definition for the APIs or the definition in the QSYSINC library. I generally use my own because I can tailor defaults for our environment. YMMV (Your Mileage May Vary). In our shop, we keep our definitions of the API interfaces in copy members. In the example below, I have included the actual code for the complete picture.
