Why does this:
CREATE TABLE QTEMP/TESTF (TESTFIELD INTEGER)
display this in DSPFFD:
Data Field Buffer Buffer
Field Type Length Length Position
TESTFIELD BINARY 9 0 4 1
And this in the compile listing:
*--------------------------------------------------
* RPG record format . . . . : X
* External format . . . . . : TESTF : QTEMP/TESTF
*--------------------------------------------------
4=I (ALWNULL) B 1 4 0TESTFIELD
Also,
a standalone binary field:
BINFIELD B(9,0)
a standalone integer field:
INTFIELD I(10,0)
the integer field from the table:
TESTFIELD P(9,0)
It's no wonder there is confusion about this.
