Re: Reading Through the IFS

Bob,

Scott Klement has an example of what you want to do over on his site:

http://www.scottklement.com/rpg/ifs_ebook/ch7readdir.html

His excellent examples have helped me very much whenever I want to work 
with the IFS from RPGLE (and in other areas also).

Thanks Scott!

Re: Reading Through the IFS






Sure...you can do it through more traditional techniques or through C
functionss. The traditional way would be to use QSH and do an ls of the
directory into a file - check the archives for details. You could also use 
C
functions to do this - check the archives for details. Either way is very
doable.

   Is there a way to read through the files in a folder on the IFS 

(using

   RPGIV or RPG400) and get the file names?

   What I need to do is read through each file in the folder and rename 

it

so
   it will be moved into another folder.  The orignal file name has a 

max

of
   30 characters.  Once it is renamed, it can have up to 60 characters
   depending on the path to the folder it is being renamed to.
