Change "DYNAMIC USER PROFILE" parameter using CHGPGM

CHGPGM can be used to change the USRPRF parameter (*USER or *OWNER). It would be very nice if the same command can also change the DYNAMIC USER PROFILE (*USER or *OWNER) parameter. Currently a recompile is needed.


Use Case:

Developers often forget to set this parameter correctly when using dynamic SQL.

    The ability to change the Dynamic User profile without recompiling a program is available with the recently delivered SQL service SWAP_DYNUSRPR (https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/ssw_ibm_i_74/rzajq/rzajqprocswapdynusrprf.htm). This function will not be added to CHGPGM since there is an SQL service that provides the requested function.
