[staf-users] Does my STAX script have a STAF handle?

[Bruce A M. <ma...@us...>]

I'm trying to set up an environment where Process A, a Java application, 
sends messages with a STAF queue to Process B which is a running STAX 
script. Process A is started by process B, so I have the opportunity to 
pass it a STAF handle number (or perhaps I can use a process name?). I 
just can't figure out what handle, or name might apply (or be set?) for my 
STAX process. Do I need to do a STAF HANDLE CREATE and use that, or is 
there one around?

Alternative, I could turn things around and start process B from process 
A, but what I get back from STAX execute is job id, not a STAF handle. 

I'm betting that this has been solved lots of times, but I don't know 
where to look. Is there a STAF/STAX equivalent of CPAN for Perl, or 
perhaps just a place with more coding examples?
