TWS Automation Common Routines
This information describes TWS Automation common routines that request information or perform tasks associated with TWS Automation.
You can use these common routines in automation procedures you create. Examples, sample routines, and data area information are given to show how this might be done.
TWS Automation provides INGTWS and OPCAQRY to retrieve and update TWS Automation-unique information. These routines can also be used in user-written extensions of TWS Automation. The following routines are arranged alphabetically for easy reference.
Note: The common routines listed below will automatically locate the
active TWS Controller
before executing PIF requests and will schedule all PIF interface
calls on the same autotask to serialize access to the EQQMLOG data
set.
The active TWS Controller
can be located in user routines by issuing the following sequence
of commands:
INGLIST CATEGORY=OPC,SUBTYPE=CONTROLLER,OBSERVED=AVAILABLE,
OUTMODE=LINEINGVARS GET subsystems_returned_above TWSACT OUTMODE=LINE
