Datetime stamp from the last entry in the journal stream (Journal class)
Syntax
%string = journal:StringLastDateTime
Syntax terms
- %string
- An EBCDIC string variable to receive the ending datetime of the contents of the journal object. This 14-character value is in CYYDDDHHMISSXX format: CYY = year - 1900, DDD = Julian day number, HH = hour, MI = minutes, SS = seconds, XX = hundredths of seconds
- %jrnl
- A reference to an instance of a Journal object.
Usage notes
- If you want to use the result of this method as, or in connection with, the EndTime parameter of the AppendJournalData function, be sure to remove the leading century indicator, because that parameter must be specified in YYDDDHHMISSXX format. For example, you can use the intrinsic Substring function, as shown in the "test for time values that are out of range" in Journal example.
