Rename Object (QLIRNMO) API
The job's current library
*LIBL
The job's library list
Object type
INPUT; CHAR(10)
The type of object being renamed. If the from object and the to object belong to the same library,
only a rename operation is done. The object type must be supported on the RNMOBJ command. If
the from object and the to object belong to different libraries, a move operation is done. The object
type must be supported on the MOVOBJ command. If both a rename and a move operation are
done, the object type must be supported on both the RNMOBJ and MOVOBJ commands. An
asterisk (*) must precede the object type. For a list of the object types that cannot be moved or
renamed, see the CL Programming book.
To qualified object name
INPUT; CHAR(20)
The new name of the object and the new library in which it will be located. The object name can be
the same name as the original object or a new name. The library name can be the same name as the
original library or a new name. If the object name is the same as the original object, the library name
must not be the same as the original library. The first 10 characters contain the object name, and the
second 10 characters contain the library name.
Replace object
INPUT; CHAR(1)
Whether to replace an existing object with the same name as the to object and library name
parameter. The following values can be specified:
0
Do not replace the existing object. If 0 is specified and the object already exists, an error
message is returned to the application.
1
Replace the existing object.
Error code
I/O; CHAR(*)
The structure in which to return error information. For the format of the structure, see Error Code
Parameter.
Usage Notes
This API is conditionally threadsafe. For multithreaded jobs, see the restrictions in the Rename Object
(RNMOBJ) command.
