Application Development Manager/400 APIs

The Application Development Manager/400 (ADM/400) feature is no longer available as of IBM^® i V5R3. However, the Application Development Manager/400 APIs can still be used by applications written in high-level languages. The Application Development Manager/400 feature is not required.

The Application Development Manager/400 APIs allow a control language (CL) command such as the Build Part (BLDPART) command to determine, for example, the includes and external references that were used by certain processors when processing a source member. The term processor is used in these APIs to mean compiler or preprocessor. A part can be either a source member or an object, such as a file.

The Get and Set Status APIs are used to query and initialize the build information space that is to contain the Application Development Manager/400 information. The Write and Read Build Information APIs are used to write or read records of build information to and from the space.

For additional information, see Using Application Development Manager/400 APIs.

For information about the different types of records that can be read or written by using the Application Development Manager/400 APIs, see the following topics:

• Record Types
• Examples of Records Written

The Application Development Manager/400 APIs are:

• Get Space Status (QLYGETS) obtains the status of the space.
• Read Build Information (QLYRDBI) reads one or more records from the space.
• Set Space Status (QLYSETS) sets the status of the space.
• Write Build Information (QLYWRTBI) writes one or more records to the space.
