Part of i-effect is a native program interface to call the functions contained in the API of the product from native applications.
A service program is provided for this purpose (*SRVPGM), which can be linked to modules created by the user.
The following chapters contain a list of the interfaces contained in the service program as well as an explanation of the parameters used there.
Service program
All functions are contained in the SERVICEAPI service program in the IEFFECT library.
Sample program
The example program TSTSRVAPI can be found in the QRPGLESRC file of the IEFFECT library. The application of the functions contained in the service program is demonstrated here as an example.
To convert the example program, proceed as follows.
CRTRPGMOD MODULE(IEFFECT/TSTSRVAPI) SRCFILE(IEFFECT/QRPGLESRCS) SRCMBR(TSTSRVAPI) DBGVIEW(*SOURCE) REPLACE(*YES) TGTRLS(V7R1M0)
CRTPGM PGM(IEFFECT/TSTSRVAPI) MODULE(IEFFECT/TSTSRVAPI) BNDSRVPGM((*LIBL/SERVICEAPI)) TGTRLS(V7R1M0)
