1. Today’s Agenda Object Management Library List PDM (Programming Development Manager) SEU (Source Entry Utility)

2. Object Management Definition > ‘An object is information stored on the iSeries system that can be operated on by using commands & programs. Some types are > Program, File, Folder & Library Main characteristics are > Name, Library, Type, Attribute, Owner Name, Creator Name & Authorization

3. Object Management (Continued) Comparing types > Source Physical File vs Data File ( wb ) Life Cycle of code from development to execution( wb ) Difference between a Member and an Object (i.e. Programs & Files) ( wb )

4. iSeries Libraries Differences between System, Product and User libraries A User library is an object that groups related objects of other types including programs and files Current Library

5.

The iSeries commands relating to the maintenance of the current Library List is temporary for that sign-on session. ( wb )
