Responding to inquiry messages in CL programs

[R.G.]

Hi,

How can I automaticaly respond to a CPA* message in a CL program? I know
the message ID and the message default response is the one to go.
I've tried MONMSG but it doesn't seem to work with this type of message.

thank's in advance

I've been down this road also. It is only possible to monitor for
Escape, Notify and Status messages in a CL program. Instead I added an
entry into the System Reply List (WRKRPYLE). This may be your answer,
depending on what you are trying to achieve. For instance, you could
use the ADDRPYLE and RMVRPYLE commands in your program if you only want
the list entries to be active while it is running.

Hope this is of use,

I added an entry into the System Reply List but the message keeps bugging
me. Does all the messages in the System Reply List are handled by the
system? Do I have to set any special parameter anywere? (job, program
compilation...)
The message i'm getting is the CPA7025 and it only receives two answers 'I'
or 'C'.

Thank's

Got it... It's the INQMSGRPY parameter in the job attribute, thank's Anton.

If the program is submitted, there is an option on the SBMJOB command
that controls whether the system reply list is used. I think parameter
name is "INQMSGRPY". The default value is to use the value on the job
description. It can be forced to something like *SYSRPL.

I don't know for certain, but it would seem to follow that you can
change the job description that the program is using to also have this
value. I'd be careful about changing any shared job descripitions
though.

No problem. Sorry - forgot the bit about the job attribute; it was a
while ago now ! See message 5 also - he made a good point. I
submitted my job and used INQMSGRPY(*SYSRPYL).
