Re: "Write to Job Log" API?

[Corey Bordelon <corey.bordelon@xxxxxxxxx>]

There *used to be* a great video available on how to use it from System i
Network: http://systeminetwork.com/tuesdaytips

Unfortunately, I can't find it anymore, I think it was before their July
2008 cutoff date.

Here is the prototype I use, inspired by that video:

     D JobLog          PR                  EXTPROC('Qp0zLprintf')
     D  pMsg                           *   VALUE
     D                                     OPTIONS(*STRING)
     D  pS1                            *   VALUE
     D                                     OPTIONS(*NOPASS:*STRING)
     D  pS2                            *   VALUE
     D                                     OPTIONS(*NOPASS:*STRING)
     D  pS3                            *   VALUE
     D                                     OPTIONS(*NOPASS:*STRING)
     D  pS4                            *   VALUE
     D                                     OPTIONS(*NOPASS:*STRING)
     D  pS5                            *   VALUE
     D                                     OPTIONS(*NOPASS:*STRING)
     D  pS6                            *   VALUE
     D                                     OPTIONS(*NOPASS:*STRING)


And this is how I call it:

 JobLog('Log This!!'+LF );


(LF is declared as constant X'25')
