The List PPP Connection Profiles API (QtocLstPPPCnnPrf) returns a list of PPP connection profiles with some basic information about each profile.
The user space for which you want to retrieve information, and the library in which it is located. The first 10 characters contain the user space name, and the second 10 characters contain the library name. You can use these special values for the library name:
| *CURLIB | The job's current library |
| *LIBL | The library list |
The format of the space information to be returned. The format names supported are:
| PRFD0100 | Connection profile lists. Refer to PRFD0100 Format for details on the format. |
The structure in which to return error information. For the format of the structure, see Error code parameter.
To request a list of PPP Connection Profiles, use format PRFD0100.
The PPP Connection Profile list consists of:
For details about the user area and generic header, see User spaces. For details about the remaining items, see the following sections.
When you retrieve list entry information from a user space, you must use the entry size returned in the generic header. The size of each entry may be padded at the end. If you do not use the entry size, the result may not be valid. For examples of how to process lists, see Examples: APIs and exit programs.
