you've started to try to externalize I/O and choosed a programm as your

it would have been no problem to enhance the first shot of the interface,
to add some more exported procedures to match the needs.
For the implementation you have choosen RLA - again the wrong tool.


Dieter,

You keep asserting that the service program that I referenced in my
original post belongs to me. I have stated several times that it is not
mine. It doesn't belong to me. I wouldn't endorse it. I wouldn't use it. Is
that clear?

I will however post a link to a DB I/O service program that does belong to
me.

Procedure names that begin with "rla" are exported from an RPG wrapper
around C APIs that are exported from IBM's QC2IO service program.

For example, rlaColGet("TABLE" : "COLUMN" : key) is a generic utility that
returns a value, given a table name, column name, and key. BTW, this
function is an implementation of Codd's Rule #2, quoted from Wikipedia as
follows:

"*Rule 2:* The *guaranteed access rule*: Each and every datum (atomic
value) in a relational data base is guaranteed to be logically accessible
by resorting to a combination of table name, primary key value and column
name."

Feel free to provide feedback.
