Re: RPG prototype for C-language FILE *

I had that one.

In C, you can do the following:


FILE *fdsrc;
fdsrc=fopen('/tmp/filename.ext','rb');
if fdsrc<>NULL;
fclose(fdsrc);
endif;

The problem is comparing the fdsrc to see if it is a valid handler or not.

You can find some of the prototypes from Scott Klement here:

I have that document.
The trouble is not being able to open a file in a binary mode using the open() function. I know that I can open a file in binary mode with the fopen. The CL commands to copy files around the IFS is way too slow. When the routines copy a PDF file, they garbage the output file. Most text files are fine, but some get gummed up too.

Jay,

Scott Klement has posted in his web site some very easy to use examples
about accessing the IFS with RPGLE. Check the following URL:

http://scottklement.com/rpg/ifs.html

In fact, check the whole site :-) Scott has some wonderful routines and
code examples....

HTH,

Luis
