<h1 class="topictitle1">Use break-handling programs</h1>
|
|
<div><p>A break-handling program is one that is automatically called when
|
|
a message arrives at a message queue that is in *BREAK mode. </p>
|
|
<div class="section"> <p>You must specify the name of both the program and the break delivery
|
|
name on the same <span class="cmdname">Change Message Queue (CHGMSGQ)</span> command.
|
|
Although you specify the program on the CHGMSGQ command, it is one or more
|
|
procedures within the program that processes the message. A procedure within
|
|
this program must run a <span class="cmdname">Receive Message (RCVMSG)</span> command
|
|
to receive the message. To receive and handle the message, the user-defined
|
|
program called to handle messages for break delivery receives parameters.
|
|
Specifically, the first procedure to run within the program receives these
|
|
parameters. The parameters identify the message queue and the message reference
|
|
key (MRK) of the message that is causing the break. If the system calls a
|
|
break-handling program, it interrupts the job that has the message queue in
|
|
break mode. When the break-handling program ends, the interrupted program
|
|
resumes processing.</p>
|
|
<p>The following program (PGMA), which consists of
|
|
only this one procedure, is an example of a break-handling program. </p>
|
|
<pre>PGM PARM(&MSGQ &MSGLIB &MRK)
|
|
DCL VAR(&MSGQ) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(10)
|
|
DCL VAR(&MSGLIB) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(10)
|
|
DCL VAR(&MRK) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(4)
|
|
DCL VAR(&MSG) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(75)
|
|
RCVMSG MSGQ(&MSGLIB/&MSGQ) MSGKEY(&MRK) +
|
|
MSG(&MSG)
|
|
.
|
|
.
|
|
.
|
|
ENDPGM</pre>
|
|
<p>After the break-handling program is created, running the following
|
|
command connects it to the QSYSMSG message queue.</p>
|
|
<pre>CHGMSGQ MSGQ(QSYS/QSYSMSG) DLVRY(*BREAK) PGM(PGMA)</pre>
|
|
<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> <ol><li>When messages are handled, they should be removed from the message queue.
|
|
When a message queue is put in break mode, any message on the queue will
|
|
cause the break-handling program to get called. During CHGMSGQ, the break
|
|
program is called only once when a message is found that meets the criteria
|
|
of the message severity for the queue, regardless of how many messages meeting
|
|
the message severity criteria are found so the break handling program should
|
|
handle all of the messages on the queue. After CHGMSGQ, the break
|
|
program is called for each message that meets the message severity criteria.</li>
|
|
<li>The procedure or program receiving the message should not be coded with
|
|
a wait-time other than zero to receive a message. You can specify a value
|
|
other than zero for the wait parameter with the <span class="cmdname">Receive Message (RCVMSG)</span> command.
|
|
The message arrival event cannot be handled by the system while the job is
|
|
running a break-handling event.</li>
|
|
<li>The message queue severity can be set to indicate that the break-handling
|
|
program should only be called if the severity of the message sent is equal
|
|
to or greater than the severity of the message queue.</li>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p>An example of a break-handling program is to have the program
|
|
send a message, which is normally sent to the QSYSOPR queue, to another queue
|
|
in place of or in addition to QSYSOPR.</p>
|
|
<p>The following is an example of
|
|
a user-defined program (again with only one procedure) to handle break messages.
|
|
The display station user does not need to respond to the messages CPA5243
|
|
(Press Ready, Start, or Start-Stop on device &1) and CPA5316 (Verify alignment
|
|
on device &3) when this program is used. </p>

<div class="attention"><span class="attentiontitle">Attention:</span> <p>In the above example of a break-handling
|
|
program, if a CPA5316 message should arrive at the queue while the <span class="cmdname">Display
|
|
Message (DSPMSG)</span> command is running, the DSPMSG display shows the
|
|
original message that caused the break and the CPA5316 message. The DSPMSG

display waits for the operator to reply to the CPA5316 message before proceeding.</p>

<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> This

|
|
<p>You can use the system reply list to

|
indicate the system will issue a reply to predefined inquiry messages. The
|
|
display station user, therefore, does not need to reply. </p>
|
|
<p>A procedure
|
|
within a user break-handling program may need a Suspend and Restore procedure
|
|
to ensure the display is suspended and restored while the message handling
|
|
function is being performed. The Suspend and Restore procedure is necessary
|
|
only if the following conditions exist: </p>
|
|
<ul><li>A procedure in the break-program displays other menus or screens</li>
|
|
<li>The break-program calls other programs which may display other menus or
|
|
screens.</li>

<p>If you do not want the user specified break-handling program
|
|
to interrupt the interactive job, the program may be submitted to run in batch.
|
|
You may do this by specifying a break-handling program that receives the
|
|
message and then performs a <span class="cmdname">Submit Job (SBMJOB)</span>. The SBMJOB
|
|
performs a call to the current break-handling program with any parameters
|
|
that you want to use. (An example is information from the receive message.)
|
|
Control will then be returned to the interactive job and it will continue
|
|
normally.</p>
