You can extend the capabilities of your i5/OS™ PASE
program by running control language (CL) commands that use i5/OS functions.
Use the systemCL runtime function to run an i5/OS command
from within an i5/OS PASE
program.
When you run i5/OS commands
from i5/OS PASE, the systemCL
runtime function handles ASCII-to-EBCDIC conversion of character string arguments,
and lets you call the program in a different job.
