RE: ProgramCall messages

Joe, on revisiting the CL I noticed a CPF9898 escape message down in the error
handling section. My oversight, I should have checked the "borrowed" shell more
closely!

However, I ran the program directly from a command line and a dspjoblog showed:
CALL PGM(MSGTEST) PARM('DEVLIBKM' 'MSGTEST01' X'00123F')
File MSGTEST01 in library DEVLIBKM in use.

                 (DLTF)
//CPF3202 - escape monitored (cmd  lvl)
File MSGTEST01 in library DEVLIBKM already exists.  (CRTPF)    //CPF5813 -
diagnostic monitored   (pgm  lvl)                               File MSGTEST01
not created in library DEVLIBKM.       (CRTPF)   //CPF7302 - escsape monitored
(pgm  lvl)
.        //CPF9898 Final escape
So it seems that although ALL CPF messages do appear in the joblog, only the
unmonitored ones are caught by the getMessageList() method although this is not
mentioned in the toolbox documentation. I would have thought that all CPF
messages would be returned by this method, like a Java equivalent of the RCVMSG
command.

Thanks,

Keith
