PSZ pszComputerName = NULL ;
PSZ pszQueueName = NULL ;
/* Get job id from the input argument */
ulJob = atoi(argv[1]);
/* Call the function to do the release. If an error is returned, print it. */

Call Sequence
#define INCL_SPL /* Or use INCL_PM, */ #include <os2.h> PSZ pszComputerName; /* Name of computer where job is to be continued. */ PSZ pszQueueName; /* Queue Name. */ ULONG ulJob; /* Job identification number. */ SPLERR rc; /* Return code. */ rc = SplReleaseJob(pszComputerName, pszQueueName, ulJob);
Remarks
Any job can be released by a user with administrator privilege.
A job created locally can be released locally regardless of user privilege level, but it can be released remotely only by a user with administrator privilege.
A remote job can be released by a user without administrator privilege only if the user identification of the person initiating the request is the same as the user identification of the person who created the job.
