F$GETQUI and batch job entry numbers?

» close window

The Question is:

 
How can I get the entry number of a batch job on a queue using F$GETQUI?

The Answer is :

 
  For the current job (ie: self)
 
$       clear = F$GETQUI("CANCEL_OPERATION",,,)
$       entry = F$GETQUI("DISPLAY_JOB","ENTRY_NUMBER",,"THIS_JOB")
 
  example scanning queues:
 
$ start=f$getqui("cancel_operation")
$ nextqueue:
$   queuename=f$getqui("display_queue","queue_name","*","all_jobs,generic,symbiont")
$   if queuename.eqs."" then exit
$   WRITE SYS$OUTPUT "Queue: ''queuename'"
$   nextentry:
$     entrynum=f$getqui("display_job","entry_number",,"all_jobs,freeze_context")
$     if entrynum .eqs. "" then goto nextqueue
$     user=f$getqui("display_job","username",,"all_jobs")
$     WRITE SYS$OUTPUT "  User: ''user'  Entry number: ''entrynum'"
$   goto nextentry
