i/o module

[David FOXWELL <David.FOXWELL@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Does anyone have some code that they could post for externalizing file i/o operations ?

I've had my first go at this and although it works I'm not fully happy with it.

To replace an RPG CHAIN operation, my program does something like IF NOT ReadFile ( ), and the function ReadFile will do a CHAIN.

However in replacing a loop like

SETLL File

DOU %eof

READ File

ENDDO

I use another function that uses an SQL cursor. I realise that this last function could also do the same as the ReadFile ( ) , but should I replace a simple CHAIN by SQL?
