Work with Module (WRKMOD)

The Work with Modules (WRKMOD) command allows you to display and work with a list of modules from one or more libraries.

Restrictions:

• Only the libraries to which you have use (*USE) authority are searched.
• Only the modules to which you have read (*READ) authority are shown on the display.
• To perform operations on the modules, you must have *USE authority to the command used by the operation, and the appropriate authority to the modules on which the operation is to be performed.

Parameters

Module (MODULE)

Specifies how to search for modules to be placed in the list. All modules with names that correspond to the specified parameter value, and for which the user has authority, are shown.

This is a required parameter.

Qualifier 1: Module

*ALL

All modules in the libraries identified in the library qualifier are shown (except those libraries for which the user does not have authority).

generic-name

Specify the generic name of the module. A generic name is a character string of one or more characters followed by an asterisk (*); for example, ABC*. If a generic name is specified, then all modules with names that begin with the generic name, and for which the user has authority, are shown. If an asterisk is not included with the generic (prefix) name, the system assumes it to be the complete module name.

name

Specify the name of the module shown.

Qualifier 2: Library

*LIBL

All libraries in the library list for the current thread are searched. All objects in these libraries with the specified object name are shown.

*CURLIB

The current library for the job is searched. If no library is specified as the current library for the job, the QGPL library is used.

*USRLIBL

Only the libraries in the user portion of the job's library list are searched.

*ALL

All libraries in the system portion of the job's library list, including QSYS, are searched.

*ALLUSR

All user libraries are searched. All libraries with names that do not begin with the letter Q are searched except for the following:

#CGULIB     #DSULIB     #SEULIB
#COBLIB     #RPGLIB
#DFULIB     #SDALIB

Although the following Qxxx libraries are provided by IBM, they typically contain user data that changes frequently. Therefore, these libraries are considered user libraries and are also searched:

QDSNX       QRCLxxxxx   QUSRDIRDB   QUSRVI
QGPL        QSRVAGT     QUSRIJS     QUSRVxRxMx
QGPL38      QSYS2       QUSRINFSKR
QMGTC       QSYS2xxxxx  QUSRNOTES
QMGTC2      QS36F       QUSROND
QMPGDATA    QUSER38     QUSRPOSGS
QMQMDATA    QUSRADSM    QUSRPOSSA
QMQMPROC    QUSRBRM     QUSRPYMSVR
QPFRDATA    QUSRDIRCF   QUSRRDARS
QRCL        QUSRDIRCL   QUSRSYS

1. 'xxxxx' is the number of a primary auxiliary storage pool (ASP).
2. A different library name, in the format QUSRVxRxMx, can be created by the user for each previous release supported by IBM to contain any user commands to be compiled in a CL program for the previous release. For the QUSRVxRxMx user library, VxRxMx is the version, release, and modification level of a previous release that IBM continues to support.

name

Specify the name of the library to be searched.

Module attribute (MODATR)

Specifies that a list of modules with the selected attribute is shown.

*ALL

Modules are shown regardless of the attribute associated with the module.

CBLLE

Modules with the CBL attribute (ILE COBOL modules) are shown.

CLE

Modules with the C attribute (ILE C modules) are shown.

CLLE

Modules with the CL attributes (ILE CL modules) are shown.

CPPLE

Modules with the CPPLE attribute (ILE C++ modules) are shown.

RPGLE

Modules with the RPG attribute (ILE RPG modules) are shown.

Examples

WRKMOD   MODULE(MYLIB/*ALL)

This command lists all the modules to which the user has authority that are stored in library MYLIB.
