Who is using the Document Library Objects?

Sometimes when you are trying to access an IFS object you might get the message indicating the object is in use. There is no such command in iSeries to check the lock on the object. Using command WRKDLOLCK you can check if there is a lock on the document library object.

The WRKDLOLCK command has following components: 

 
WRKDLOLCK   *CMD 
WRKDLOLCK   *PGM  CL program

Following is the source code:
