  2. CL Syntax Command-name (space) parameter

  3. CL Syntax • Do all commands have parameters? • Why should you always press F4 following a command instead of enter?

  4. Positional or Keyword? By Keyword, both these are allowed CRTLIB LIB(PAYROLL) TYPE(*TEST) TEXT(‘Payroll Development’) CRTLIB TYPE(*TEST) TEXT(‘Payroll Development’) LIB(PAYROLL)

  5. Positional • Allowed: • CRTLIB PAYROLL *TEST • Not Allowed • CRTLIB *TEST PAYROLL

  6. Syntax Question • How could you find the keyword syntax to Create a Physical File named EMPPF in Library IBC233LIB with a record length of 120 characters?

  7. Menu Questions • Which menu groups together all of the Work With commands? • Which menu groups together all of the commands by subject?

  8. Menu • Menus GO MAIN main menu (F16) GO MAJOR major commands menu (F4) GO VERB action menu GO SUBJECT objects menu GO CMDxxxx verb, noun, function

  9. 4 Parts of a Library List (or the 4 library list types) • System (SYS) • Product (PRD) • Current (CUR) • User (USR)

  10. Library List Commands • ADDLIBLE • Adds an entry to a library list to the USER portion of the library list • RMVLIBLE • Removes an entry from the USER portion of the library list • EDTLIBL • Adds/Deletes/Changes entries on the USER portion of the library list

  11. Library List Commands • CHGCURLIB • Changes the Current Library • CHGLIBL • Changes the Current Library and allows Add/Change/Delete to the USER portion of the library list. • All Library List commands are listed on the CMDLIBL menu.

  13. Objects Chapter 3

  14. Today’s Lecture • Use of ‘*’ on the AS/400 • Use of ‘?’ on the AS/400 • AS/400 Architecture • Object Types • Storing Objects • Manipulating Library Lists • Spooled Files • Work with Jobs Commands

  15. What does the ‘*’ denote?

  16. ‘*’ (Asterix) • When used before an ‘AS/400’ word, indicates that the word is a special value.eg. CRTLIB LIB(MYLIB) TYPE(*TEST) TEXT(‘Test Library) • When used at the end of a word, indicates a generic combination of alphanumerics (wildcards).eg. WRKLIB TST*

  17. Use of the ‘?’ • Entering a command to see all possible values for a parameter. • F4 does the same

  18. What is an Object?

  19. Objects • Takes up Space on the AS400 • Has a Description • Has an Object Type

  20. Object Types

  21. A Library Search

  22. Object Types • Certain types of commands only work with certain types of Object Typeseg. DSPUSRPRF • Object Type is assigned to the Object at time of creationeg. CRTLIB creates objects with a type of *LIB

  23. How does the AS/400 find Objects?

  24. AS/400 finds Objects • Qualified Names Library/Object IBC233LIB/REVIEWS • Using Library Lists! How are Library Lists sequenced?

  25. AS/400 finds Objects Note: Library Descriptions, Device Descriptions and User Profiles are stored in QSYS. All other Object Types can be stored anywhere.

  26. What is a Spooled File?

  27. Spooled Files • AS/400 objects that contain data for printing • Are stored in Output Queues • To print a Spooled File, the file must be moved to an Output Queue attached to a printer.

  28. How Do Spooled Files get Created? QINTER Output Queue Job Program/ Command Spooled File Report Layout Data *FILE *FILE

  29. DC234X99 PRT01 SPLF#1 SPLF#3 SPLF#2 SPLF#4 Change the Spooled File to OutQ PRT01
