Hello:
I made a publication, a job with MSGSHM, with a C module, because NIM did not offer it and corresponds to the operation of the ZCU or UDS from program to program on OS400 / UNIX / ZOS IBM and respecting the standards of Linux and its recommendations it can also be applied to the thread MSGSHM I wish this is useful to you or give you some ideas It allows to communicate between data program for example: I am in input and I need on my customer file to know in clear the number of the department and its description and to recover it ..... This allows me to have a single program that takes care of the department and not put the management in my client program the management of the department table
ps: I have used this principle a lot rather than sending parameters during a program call or doing a job submission handler ....
