RE: Would like to know SQL/400 forum. -- RPG400-L

Thanks for the responses!

I guess I had dismissed them because I was implementing one that returned a
result set. Thanks for setting me straight.

Here's an example:

Stored procedure definition:

CREATE PROCEDURE QGPL/PLODADRUDC(OUT CountriesWthStates CHAR (750 ), OUT
CountriesWithZips CHAR (750 )) LANGUAGE RPGLE NOT DETERMINISTIC NO SQL
CALLED ON NULL INPUT EXTERNAL NAME ITEPOBJ62/PLODADRUDC PARAMETER STYLE
GENERAL

Parameters defined as IN can only send data to the program I'm calling, OUT
can only receive data from the called program. If you need data to go both
ways, you use INOUT type parameters.

Here's the SQL statement in a program that calls it:

C/EXEC SQL
C+ CALL QGPL/PLODADRUDC (:StateParm, :ZipParm)
C/END-EXEC

The parameter names in the stored procedure don't need to match the
parameter names in the called program.

That is what I thought when I initially tried it awhile back, but how do you
go about passing parms in _and_ out of the store procedure?  If you have an
example handy and have time to post it that would be great.

Thanks,

Yes, you can call a stored procedure from RPGLE.

1 - If it does not use result sets then a simple exec sql call myproc;
should work.

2 - If it returns result sets then you cannot use imbedded SQL.  You'll have
to use SQL-CLI where the CLI stands for Call Level Interface.

Now, if you want to take an existing RPGLE program and make it a stored
procedure, and even have it return result sets to a different program,
that's no big deal.  In fact, an old S/36 programmer here who has long moved
over to the dark side of PC development wrote his first RPG program in years
to do a program that returned a result set.

DPARM1            DS 
DINPUT                           1A 
DPARM2            DS                  OCCURS(1) 
DOUTPUT                         11A 
DROW              S              1  0 
C     *ENTRY        PLIST 
C                   PARM                    PARM1 
C     INPUT         IFEQ      'A' 
C                   MOVE      '1'           OUTPUT 
C                   ELSE 
C                   MOVE      'TEST OUTPUT' OUTPUT 
C                   ENDIF 
C                   MOVE      1             ROW 
C/EXEC SQL SET RESULT SETS ARRAY :PARM2 FOR :ROW ROWS C/END-EXEC 
C                   RETURN 

Then there's a little work like
STRSQL
CREATE PROCEDURE ... to register this program as a stored procedure.

RE: Would like to know SQL/400 forum.






Anybody correct me if I am wrong, but I don't believe you can call a 
stored
procedure from within an RPG program using embedded SQL. I tried this 
about
a year ago without success. Note that I am talking about calling
something
created with the "CREATE PROCEDURE" SQL command.

>I would like to create my procedure with SQL/400 scripts and I would
like
to see the output in a PF.
Could you explain what you mean by you would like to see the output in a

PF?
Are you talking about the output from executing the SQL script? And by
output do you mean the resultant message like "query executed 
successfully"
or do you mean place the result set in the PF?

I would want to create a SQL procedure, so that I can verify the output
of 
a
very complex business logic in one of RPGLE programs.

I would like to create my procedure with SQL/400 scripts and I would
like 
to
see the output in a PF.

Appreciate your help.

Thanks,
Murugesh
