Source file is a type of physical file which contains additional fields to contain source code. It is created with the CRTSRCPF command.

Record length

• OPM source is 92 bytes
  • Sequence number field is 6 bytes
  • Date field is 6 bytes
  • Source statement field is 80 bytes

• ILE source is 112 bytes
  • Sequence number field is 6 bytes
  • Date field is 6 bytes
  • Source statement field is 100 bytes

Hints & Tips

QSYS/QADBXREF, the IBM-supplied system cross reference physical file, can be filtered in a variety of ways to create a list of just source files.
