 ovrdbf doesn’t get deleted with a dltovr
CL programming, CRTDUPOBJ, DLTOVR, OVRDBF, OVRSCOPE, PF
I've got a cl that copies a PF file to qtemp then I use CRTDUPOBJ to get a LF attached to the qtemp PF file. Then ovrdbf of LF to qtemp/LF with OVRSCOPE(*JOB). After calling 2 programs to update the qtemp/LF I DLTOVR FILE(*ALL) LVL(*JOB). But the override stays doesn't get deleted. I can't figure out how to delete the override. How can I get the override deleted? Plus is there a way I may see the overrides that are in place besides viewing the job (dspjob, option15)? dspjob doesn't show me any overrides. Thanks

I found another ovrdbf inside the rpgle program that was causing the problem. What an oversight.

Hi Mtspudgun:
What make you think the override is still in effect?
I haven’t experienced a situation where dspjob, option15
didn’t show the override for the job.

Remember as long as LF is in QTEMP and QTEMP is at the top of your library list
Then LF will be used – regardless of overrides.

Hi,

You can also use the command DSPOVR to see which overrides are in effect.
