Top

Library (LIB)

Specifies the library that contains the objects you want to work with.

*PRV

The library that was used in your previous WRKOBJPDM session will be used.

*CURLIB

The current library for the job will be used. If no current library is defined, library QGPL will be used.

name

Specify the name of the library that contains the objects you want to work with.

Object (OBJ)

Specifies the objects you want to work with. You can use this parameter to work with all the objects or a subset of objects in the specified library.

*ALL

Work with all objects in the library specified for the Library (LIB) parameter. You can subset the list of objects by specifying a value other than *ALL for the Object type (OBJTYPE) and Object attribute (OBJATR) parameters.

*PRV

Work with the same object or objects that you worked with in your previous WRKOBJPDM session.

generic-name

Specify the generic name of the objects to work with.

The generic name can be in one of the following formats:

ABC*

Displays a list of all objects that begin with the characters ABC. For example, ABC, ABCD, or ABCTEST.

*ABC

Displays a list of all objects ending with the characters ABC. For example, ABC, DABC, or TESTABC.

*B*

Displays a list of all objects that have the character B anywhere in the name. For example, B, BALL, ABCD.

A*C

Displays a list of all objects that begin with the character A and end with the character C. For example, AC, ABC, or AZZZC.

"a*"

Displays a list of all objects with quoted names that start with the letter a. For example, "a", "aB", "aD".

**ALL

Displays a list of all objects ending with ALL. For example, ALL, BALL, or TESTALL. The double asterisk is needed in this case, since *ALL is defined as the special value to display a list of all objects.

name

Specify the name of the object or objects to work with. Multiple objects will be listed if there are objects with different object types with this name and *ALL is specified for the OBJTYPE parameter.

Object type (OBJTYPE)

Specifies the object type for objects you want to work with. You can use this parameter to work with all object types or a subset of objects.

*ALL

Work with objects that match the object name specified for the Object (OBJ) parameter.

*PRV

Work with objects that are the same object type you worked with in your previous WRKOBJPDM session.

object-type

Specify the system object type of object you want to work with.

Object attribute (OBJATR)

Specifies the object attribute for objects you want to work with. You can use this parameter to work with a subset of objects that match the object name and object type values specified for the Object (OBJ) and Object type (OBJTYPE) parameters.

*ALL

Work with all objects that match the values specified for the OBJ and OBJTYPE parameters.

*PRV

Work with objects that have the same object attribute you worked with in your previous WRKOBJPDM session.

*BLANK

Work with all objects that have no attribute value.

generic-value

Specify the generic attribute of the objects to work with.

The generic value can be in one of the following formats:

RPG*

Displays a list of all objects whose attribute type begins with the characters RPG. For example, RPG, RPG36, and RPG38.

*C

Displays a list of all objects whose attribute type ends with the character C. For example, C and SQLC.

*I*

Displays a list of all objects that have the character I anywhere in the attribute type. For example, ICFF, PLI, PLI38, and SQLPLI.

P*38

Displays a list of all objects whose attribute type begins with the character P and ends with the characters 38. For example, PLI38 and PRTF38.

"a*"

Displays a list of all objects whose attribute type contains the letter a within quotation marks. For example, "a", "aB", "aD".

**ALL

Displays a list of all objects whose attribute type ends with ALL. For example, ALL, BALL, or TESTALL. The double asterisk is needed in this case, since *ALL is defined as the special value to display objects regardless of the object attribute.

Examples

Example 1: Work with All Objects in a Library

WRKOBJPDM   LIB(MYLIB)  OBJ('*ALL')

This command allows you to work with all of the objects in library MYLIB.

Example 2: Work with Objects of One Type

WRKOBJPDM   LIB(*PRV)  OBJ('*ALL')  OBJTYPE(*CMD)

This command allows you to work with all command (*CMD) objects in the same library you worked with in the previous WRKOBJPDM session.
