Graphics symbol set (GSS)

Specifies the graphics symbol sets to be shown.

This is a required parameter.

Qualifier 1: Graphics symbol set

*ALL
All graphics symbol sets are shown.
generic-name
Specify the generic name of the graphics symbol sets to be shown. A generic name is a character string that contains one or more characters followed by an asterisk (*). If a generic name is specified, all graphics symbol sets that have names with the same prefix as the generic name are shown.
name
Specify the name of the graphics symbol set to be 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 thread is searched. If no library is specified as the current library for the thread, the QGPL library is searched.
*USRLIBL
If a current library entry exists in the library list for the current thread, the current library and the libraries in the user portion of the library list are searched. If there is no current library entry, only the libraries in the user portion of the library list 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   QUSRIJS     QUSRVxRxMx
QGPL        QSRVAGT     QUSRINFSKR
QGPL38      QSYS2       QUSRNOTES
QMGTC       QSYS2xxxxx  QUSROND
QMGTC2      QS36F       QUSRPOSGS
QMPGDATA    QUSER38     QUSRPOSSA
QMQMDATA    QUSRADSM    QUSRPYMSVR
QMQMPROC    QUSRBRM     QUSRRDARS
QPFRDATA    QUSRDIRCL   QUSRSYS
QRCL        QUSRDIRDB   QUSRVI

  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.
*ALL
All libraries in the system, including QSYS, are searched.
name
Specify the name of the library to be searched.
