RE: CHKOBJ for IFS?

What OS release? If i6.1 or above, I believe it's fairly easy to write to
the fopen() and fclose() APIs. I've done it as far back as V4Rsomething,
but it's easier in the newer releases, with Integer data types and the like.

That's the way I'd go. If it'll help, I'll dig out the CL calls I have to
those APIs, tomorrow.

It looks like I'm going to be needing to check for the existence of a
*STMF in the IFS, from a CL program: it's going to be running in a batch
job, and needs to wait (i.e., DLYJOB) until another job (the one that
spawned it) has created the object (and no, there's no way for the
creating job to actually tell the waiting one that the object has

arrived).

Is there a CHKOBJ-equivalent for the IFS? The system in question is at
V6R1. It wouldn't exactly be a hard thing to write (at least, in a
language other than CL), but I'm in no hurry to reinvent any wheels.
