Re: rec level i/o to QTEMP

Alex,

I'll wait for the "official" answer, but could it be because Record Level
I/O runs under a different server job (which would be a different QTEMP)
than Command Call?  I ran into a similar problem with file locks trying to
use Program Calls and Record Level I/O.

Subject:  rec level i/o to QTEMP



I remember there was some discussion several weeks  ago about problems with
rec level i/o to QTEMP.? Would someone mind  reposting the solution to the
problem?

Problem:? The rec level i/o classes like  KeyedFile or
AS400FileRecordDescription dont seem to see files in QTEMP.? I  know the
files exist in QTEMP because I have just done a CPYF to QTEMP using
CommandCall.? As a diagnostic I also did a DSPFD OUTPUT(*PRINT) on the file
in QTEMP again using CommandCall.? The spool file clearly shows the file is
in QTEMP.? When I try to do a
AS400FileRecordDescription.retrieveRecordFormat or KeyedFile.open on the
file,  the as/400 insists on telling me that the file doesnt exist in
QTEMP.

BTW:? I do make absolutely sure that I am  using the same AS400 object
connection for the whole process.? Also I am  using the latest mod2
toolbox.? The as/400 is at v4r4 with fairly recent  ptfs.


Here is a little code snippet that fails with a  "CPF3012 File STATUS in
library QTEMP not found." when retrieving the record  format:

?AS400 host = null;
?host = new  AS400("MYSYS","MYUSRPRF","MYPASSWORD");
?host.connectService(AS400.COMMAND);
?host.connectService(AS400.RECORDACCESS);
?CommandCall  cmd = new CommandCall(host);
?System.out.println("running  command");
?cmd.run("CPYF FROMFILE(MYLIB/STATUS) TOFILE(QTEMP/STATUS)  CRTFILE
(*YES)");
?cmd.run("DSPFD QTEMP/STATUS  OUTPUT(*PRINT)");
?QSYSObjectPathName filepath = new  QSYSObjectPathName("QTEMP","STATUS","
*FILE","MBR");
?KeyedFile file =  new KeyedFile(host,filepath.getPath());
?AS400FileRecordDescription  recdesc = new
AS400FileRecordDescription(host,filepath.getPath());
?System.out.println("getting  record format");
?RecordFormat[] recfmt =  recdesc.retrieveRecordFormat();


Sorry to ask for the repost, but this problem is  quite frustrating.
