Re: rpg400 interview question

sir i need clarification on this whenever u are free that time you send me reply sir,job delay means,can't get you.

ok kalyan..... yeah record lock will happened only in update mode with chain operation..

.if u called the two program in same time.(even milliseconds also same) then only here record lock will occur.

otherwise chain single record for update and also do the same update on the same record through another program.both updates will be happened in same time .put delay job then see record lock

Re: rpg400 interview question

Job Delay means....
When you are running a program you can make the program stand still without doing anything using a CL fucntion called DLYJOB. You need to mentioned the time for how long u want this !!

Just play with that command in CL programs ....

[kalyana]

Re: rpg400 interview question

where i have to give that dlyjob command within the rpg program or in command line,

[giri]

Re: rpg400 interview question

I would suggest first you learn some basic AS400 commands and then CL commands and how to call CL from RPG and RPG from CL programs !! This would help you a lot !!

Re: rpg400 interview question

while program is running means when we call a program or what i can't understand

[kalyana]

Re: rpg400 interview question

to call cl from rpg we can use qcmdexec correct only.then where i have to give delay job dlyjob within cl and calling it via rpg ya

[kalyana]

Re: rpg400 interview question

we have to include qcmdexec in our one rpg program and then call a clp containing the dlyjob command ah

Re: rpg400 interview question

you can use DLYJOB in CL program

/* DELETE ALL LOGICAL FILES IN &V40FILES LIBRARY BEFORE COPY */   
                                                                  
 DOIT:       CALL       PGM(CNVDLTLF) PARM(&V40PGMS &V40FILES)    
                                                                  
 /* DELAY THE JOB FOR 1 MINUTE TO ALLOW FOR THE SLOW MACHINES */  
 /* TO COMPLETE THE INDEXING, ETC                             */  
                                                                  
             DLYJOB     DLY(60) 

in RPG using QCMDEXEC

 *                                                                  
c                   eval      cmdstring = 'dlyjob 10'               
c                   eval      cmdlength = %len(%trim(cmdstring))    
c                   call(e)   'QCMDEXC'                             
c                   parm                    cmdstring               
c                   parm                    cmdlength

Re: rpg400 interview question

Based on the thread title, it sounds like the OP is trying to get answers to an online interview question to get a job that he/she is obviously not qualified for... I have a bit of a problem with that.
