BLDQLF Build Qualified Object Name

BLDQLF BUILD QUALIFIED NAME TAABLDB
************************************************** * * * The BLDQLF tool only exists for * * compatibility reasons with an old version * * in the QUSRTOOL tools. It is no longer * * needed because RPG now supports a * * concatenation function which is more * * efficient. * * * ************************************************** The Build Qualified Name command builds a qualified name from an object and library name. The command has little use in a CL program because CL supports a concatenation function. However, a HLL such as RPG can call the CPP directly to perform the concatenation. Command parameters *CMD ------------------ OBJ The object name to be concatenated. LIB The library name to be concatenated. QLFDNAME A return variable with the qualified name. It must be specified as *CHAR LEN(21). Calling the CPP from RPG ------------------------ The following code can be copied to call the CPP directly: C CALL 'TAABLDBC' BLDQLF C PARM xxx OBJ 10 Object C PARM yyy LIB 10 Library C PARM QLFNAM 21 Qlfd name Restrictions ------------ Because the command returns a variable, it can only be used in a CL program. Prerequisites ------------- None. Implementation -------------- None, the tool is ready to use. Objects used by the tool ------------------------ Object Type Attribute Src member Src file ------ ---- --------- ---------- ---------- BLDQLF *CMD TAABLDB QATTCMD TAABLDBC *PGM CLP TAABLDBC QATTCL
