SPOOLBATCHNAME Procedure

The SPOOLBATCHNAME procedure returns the name of the batch job currently being

spooled to the collector. This procedure can be used when spooling at levels 1, 2, or

error-code returned value

INT

returns one of the following spooler error codes:

filenum-of-collector input

is the file number of an open supervisor file. The file number is returned when the

supervisor is opened.

batchname output

Considerations

The following considerations apply to the use of the SPOOLBATCHNAME procedure:



A call to SPOOLBATCHNAME can be issued by an application spooling at any

level.



When spooling at level 1, a job is not created until after the WRITE[X], SETMODE,

or CONTROL procedure is called once.



When spooling at level 2 or 3, a job is not created until after the SPOOLSTART

procedure is called.
