RTVJOBOUTQ RETRIEVE JOB OUTPUT QUEUE TAAJOCO |
The Retrieve Job Output Queue command returns the job output queue
and library that the current job is set to.
RTVJOBOUTQ can be very helpful in determining where a job's output
will be sent, especially when special values are set as the output
queue and library on the job. Special values of *SAME, *USRPRF,
*DEV, and *WRKSTN can be set as output queue values, which can cause
a job's output to be sent to unexpected places, depending on other
system settings.
By using RTVJOBOUTQ, a programmer can determine where the output will
be sent and return this information in a message to the user, saving
time and frustration in trying to find output by hunting through
system settings, etc.
A typical series of commands would be:
DCL &OUTQ *CHAR LEN(10)
DCL &LIB *CHAR LEN(10)
.
RTVJOBOUTQ OUTQ(&OUTQ) LIB(&LIB)
Command parameters *CMD

LIB The variable name for the library of the job output
queue where the job's output will be sent. This is
a required parameter. It must be declared as a

program.
