Library (LIB)
Specifies the library that contains the objects you want to work with.
- *PRV
- The library that was used in your previous WRKOBJPDM session will be used.
- *CURLIB
- The current library for the job will be used. If no current library is defined, library QGPL will be used.
- name
- Specify the name of the library that contains the objects you want to work with.
| Top |
Object (OBJ)
Specifies the objects you want to work with. You can use this parameter to work with all the objects or a subset of objects in the specified library.
- *ALL
- Work with all objects in the library specified for the Library (LIB) parameter. You can subset the list of objects by specifying a value other than *ALL for the Object type (OBJTYPE) and Object attribute (OBJATR) parameters.
- *PRV
- Work with the same object or objects that you worked with in your previous WRKOBJPDM session.
- generic-name
- Specify the generic name of the objects to work with.
The generic name can be in one of the following formats:
- ABC*
- Displays a list of all objects that begin with the characters ABC. For example, ABC, ABCD, or ABCTEST.
- *ABC
- Displays a list of all objects ending with the characters ABC. For example, ABC, DABC, or TESTABC.
- *B*
- Displays a list of all objects that have the character B anywhere in the name. For example, B, BALL, ABCD.
- A*C
- Displays a list of all objects that begin with the character A and end with the character C. For example, AC, ABC, or AZZZC.
- "a*"
- Displays a list of all objects with quoted names that start with the letter a. For example, "a", "aB", "aD".
- **ALL
- Displays a list of all objects ending with ALL. For example, ALL, BALL, or TESTALL. The double asterisk is needed in this case, since *ALL is defined as the special value to display a list of all objects.
- name
- Specify the name of the object or objects to work with. Multiple objects will be listed if there are objects with different object types with this name and *ALL is specified for the OBJTYPE parameter.
| Top |
Object type (OBJTYPE)
Specifies the object type for objects you want to work with. You can use this parameter to work with all object types or a subset of objects.
- *ALL
- Work with objects that match the object name specified for the Object (OBJ) parameter.
- *PRV
- Work with objects that are the same object type you worked with in your previous WRKOBJPDM session.

Examples
Example 1: Work with All Objects in a Library
WRKOBJPDM LIB(MYLIB) OBJ('*ALL')
This command allows you to work with all of the objects in library MYLIB.
Example 2: Work with Objects of One Type
WRKOBJPDM LIB(*PRV) OBJ('*ALL') OBJTYPE(*CMD)
This command allows you to work with all command (*CMD) objects in the same library you worked with in the previous WRKOBJPDM session.
