EasyGIMAPI

EasyGIMAPI is a Java interface to the GIMAPI program used to query the contents of a SMP/E CSI.

You can use the regular GIMAPI query format:

List<EntryList> entries = SmpeQuery.query("MVS.GLOBAL.CSI",
    "ALLTZONES", 
    "SYSMOD", 
    "MOD,INSTALLDATE",                         
    "(SMODTYPE='PTF' | SMODTYPE='USERMOD') & FMID='HQX77E0' & APPLY='YES' & BYPASS='YES' & RECDATE>'26031'");
entries.forEach(System.out::println);

Or a Java builder style with filtering in Java, or a combination.

List<Sysmod> sysmods = SmpeQuery.csi("MVS.GLOBAL.CSI")
    .zone("MVST")
    .fmid("HQX77E0")
    .receivedAfter(LocalDate.of(2026, 1, 31))
    .listSysmod();
 
sysmods.stream()
    .filter(Sysmod::apply)
    .filter(Sysmod::bypass)
    .filter(entry -> 
            entry.smodtype() == SysmodType.PTF 
            || entry.smodtype() == SysmodType.USERMOD)
    .forEach(System.out::println);
