The Retrieve IFS Entry Description tool provides two commands for
retrieving object information about an IFS object (the number of
return parameters exceeds the limit for a single command). The
information returned includes the owner, size, create date and other
data that can be seen with the Display Attributes option from
DSP/WRKLNK.
A typical command would be:
DCL &OWNER *CHAR LEN(10)
.
RTVIFSED OBJ('/home/...') OWNER(&OWNER)
The second command is RTVIFSED2.
The major API used is Qp0lGetAttr.
