What is the Function Routing Table?
The Function Routing Table is a very simple source file called X_FUNRTR (AS/400) or X_FUNRTR.DAT (PC). It specifies how functions should be automatically routed. Source lines in this file can be input via the standard editors (SEU on the AS/400, E.EXE or EPM.EXE on the PC) and has the following format: fffffff,ttttttt where ‘fffffff’ specifies the ‘from’ function name and ‘ttttttt’ specifies the ‘to’ function name. For example , the entries: A,A1 B678V40,B678V42 specify that calls to function A should be routed to call function A1 and function B678V40 to B678V42. Of course, it is assumed that the functions A/A1 and B678V40/B678V42 have identical entry characteristics (such as number of parameters, type of parameters, etc.). How is a Function Routing Table created? On the AS/400 • Use the AS/400 command CRTSRCPF to create a standard AS/400 source file named X_FUNRTR in the associated partition’s module library. Cause a single member called X_FUNRTR to be added to the file. • Use the OS/
