F$GETQUI

Returns information about queues, including batch and print jobs currently in the queues, form definitions, and characteristic definitions kept in the queue database.
Also returns information about queue managers.
For most operations, read (R) access is required.

Format

F$GETQUI (function,[item],[object-id],[flags])

Return Value

Either an integer or a character string, depending on the item you request. For items that return a Boolean value, the string is TRUE or FALSE. If the $GETQUI system service returns an error code, F$GETQUI returns a null string ("").

Arguments

function
Specifies the action that the F$GETQUI lexical function is to perform. F$GETQUI supports all functions that can be specified with the $GETQUI system service. The following table lists these functions:

Function Description

CANCEL_OPERATION Terminates any wildcard operation that may have been initiated by a previous call to F$GETQUI.

DISPLAY_CHARACTERISTIC Returns information about a specific characteristic definition or the next characteristic definition in a wildcard operation.

DISPLAY_ENTRY Returns information about a specific job entry or the next job entry that matches the selection criteria in a wildcard operation. The DISPLAY_ENTRY function code is similar to the DISPLAY_JOB function code in that both return job information. DISPLAY_JOB, however, requires that a call be made to establish queue context; DISPLAY_ENTRY does not require that queue context be established. Only those entries that match the user-name of the current process will be processed.

DISPLAY_FILE Returns information about the next file defined for the current job context. Before you make a call to F$GETQUI to request file information, you must make a call to display queue and job information (with the DISPLAY_QUEUE and DISPLAY_JOB function codes) or to display entry information (with the DISPLAY_ENTRY function code).

DISPLAY_FORM Returns information about a specific form definition or the next form definition in a wildcard operation.

DISPLAY_JOB Returns information about the next job defined for the current queue context. Before you make a call to F$GETQUI to request job information, you must make a call to display queue information (with the DISPLAY_QUEUE function code). The DISPLAY_JOB function code is similar to the DISPLAY_ENTRY function code in that both return job information. DISPLAY_JOB, however, requires that a call be made to establish queue context; DISPLAY_ENTRY does not require that queue context be established.

DISPLAY_MANAGER Returns information about a specific queue manager or the next queue manager in a wildcard operation.

DISPLAY_QUEUE Returns information about a specific queue definition or the next queue definition in a wildcard operation.

TRANSLATE_QUEUE Translates a logical name for a queue to the equivalence name for the queue.

Some function arguments cannot be specified with the item-code, the object-id, or the flags argument. The following table lists each function argument and corresponding format line to show whether the item-code, object-id, and flags arguments are required, optional, or not applicable for that specific function. In the following format lines, brackets ([ ]) denote an optional argument. An omitted argument means the argument is not applicable for that function. Note that two commas (,,) must be used as placeholders to denote an omitted (whether optional or not applicable) argument.

DISPLAY_QUEUE F$GETQUI("DISPLAY_QUEUE",[item],object-id,[flags])

TRANSLATE_QUEUE F$GETQUI("TRANSLATE_QUEUE",[item],object-id)

item
Corresponds to a $GETQUI system service output item code. The item argument specifies the kind of information you want returned about a particular queue, job, file, form, or characteristic. Table DCLI-9 lists each item code and the data type of the value returned for each item code.
object-id
Corresponds to the $GETQUI system service QUI$SEARCH_NAME, QUI$_SEARCH_NUMBER, and QUI$_SEARCH_JOB_NAME input item codes. The object-id argument specifies either the name or the number of an object (for example, a specific queue name, job name, or form number) about which F$GETQUI is to return information. The asterisk (*) and the percent sign (%) wildcard characters are allowed for the following functions:
DISPLAY_CHARACTERISTIC
DISPLAY_ENTRY
DISPLAY_FORM
DISPLAY_MANAGER
DISPLAY_QUEUE

By specifying an asterisk (*) or percent sign (%) wildcard character as the object-id argument on successive calls, you can get status information about one or more jobs in a specific queue or about files within jobs in a specific queue. When a name is used with wildcard characters, each call returns information for the next object (queue, form, and so on) in the list. A null string ("") is returned when the end of the list is reached. A wildcard can represent only object names, not object numbers.
flags
Specifies a list of keywords, separated by commas, that corresponds to the flags defined for the $GETQUI system service QUI$_SEARCH_FLAGS input item code. (These flags are used to define the scope of the object search specified in the call to the $GETQUI system service.) Note that keywords in Table DCLI-8 can be used only with certain function codes.

Description

The F$GETQUI lexical function invokes the $GETQUI system service to return information about queues, batch and print jobs currently in those queues, form definitions, and characteristic definitions kept in the system job queue file.
The F$GETQUI lexical function provides all the features of the $GETQUI system service, including wildcard and nested wildcard operations. For example, in nested wildcard operations, $GETQUI returns information about objects defined within another object. Specifically, this mode allows you to query jobs contained in a selected queue or files contained in a selected job in a sequence of calls. After each call, the system saves the GQC (internal GETQUI context block) so that the GQC can provide the queue or job context necessary for subsequent calls.

Restriction
The GQC that is saved for wildcarded F$GETQUI calls is destroyed if you run any DCL queue-related command, such as SHOW QUEUE or SHOW ENTRY. To avoid this problem, use the SPAWN command to create a new process in which to run the DCL commands.

For more information, see the description of the $GETQUI system service in the HP OpenVMS System Services Reference Manual.
The F$GETQUI function returns information on all items that can be specified with the $GETQUI system service. Table DCLI-9 lists the items you can specify with the F$GETQUI function, the information returned, and the data type of this information.

Examples

#1
$ BLOCKS = F$GETQUI("DISPLAY_ENTRY" ,"JOB_SIZE", 1347)

In this example, the F$GETQUI lexical function is used to obtain the size in blocks of print job 1347. The value returned reflects the total number of blocks occupied by the files associated with the job.

#2
$ IF F$GETQUI("DISPLAY_QUEUE", "QUEUE_STOPPED", "VAX1_BATCH") .EQS. "TRUE" THEN GOTO 500

In this example, the F$GETQUI lexical function is used to return a value of TRUE or FALSE depending on whether the queue VAX1_BATCH is in a stopped state. If VAX1_BATCH is not in the system, F$GETQUI returns a null string ("").

$  WRITE SYS$OUTPUT "    JOB:  ", JNAME 
$  GOTO JLOOP

This sample command procedure displays all the queues in the system and all the jobs to which the user has read access in the system. In the outer loop a wildcard display queue operation is performed. No call is made to establish the right to obtain information about the queue, because all users have implicit read access to queue attributes. Because a wildcard queue name is specified ("*"), wildcard queue context is maintained across calls to F$GETQUI.
In the inner loop, to obtain information about all jobs, we enter nested wildcard mode from wildcard display queue mode. In this loop, a call is made to establish the right to obtain information about these jobs because users do not have implicit read access to jobs. The FREEZE_CONTEXT keyword is used in the request for a job name to prevent the advance of the wildcard context to the next object. After the job name has been retrieved and displayed, the procedure loops back up for the next job. The context is advanced because the procedure has not used the FREEZE_CONTEXT keyword. The wildcard queue context is dissolved when the list of matching queues is exhausted. Finally, F$GETQUI returns a null string ("") to denote that no more objects match the specified search criteria.

$ ENDIF 
$ GOTO LOOP 
$ENDLOOP: 
$ SET ON

This command procedure looks at all queues associated with the local cluster node and starts any queue that is not marked as autostart.
The procedure starts by obtaining the nodename of the local system and clearing the F$GETQUI context. In addition, error handling is turned off for the loop so that, if a queue had been started previously, the resulting error from the START QUEUE command does not abort the command procedure.
Inside the loop, the F$GETQUI function gets the next queue name in the queue list. If the result is empty, then it has reached the end of the list and it exits the loop.
The next IF statement checks to see if the queue runs on the local node. If it does, then the next statement checks to see if the queue is marked as an autostart queue. If that is false, then the queue is started with the start command. The loop is then repeated.
The final command of the procedure restores DCL error handling to the previous setting.

$     WRITE SYS$OUTPUT "    Entry: ''Entry' Retained: ''RETAINED'" 
$     IF RETAINED.EQS."TRUE" THEN DELETE/ENTRY='Entry' 
$   GOTO JLOOP

This command procedure deletes all retained entries from a nominated queue or queues. Wildcards are allowed.

#6
$ WRITE SYS$OUTPUT F$GETQUI("DISPLAY_QUEUE","RAD","BATCHQ1") -1

This example returns the value of the RAD. A value of "-1" indicates no RAD value is attributed to the queue.
