Look at QCMDEXC in another way

We can use Command processing API QCMDEXC as the CPP so that we can create a short version of command.

Here you we go….

Let’s create a short command DM which is short version of DSPMSG
In the command source type the following:

CMD
PARM KWD(CMD) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(6) CONSTANT('DSPMSG')
PARM KWD(LEN) TYPE(*DEC) LEN(15 5) CONSTANT(6)

When you create a command (opt 14), do the compiler override ( Press F4 ) and mention CPP name as QCMDEXC

CRTCMD CMD(DM) PGM(QCMDEXC)
