I guess I wouldn't do it - there is more overhead, probably, with native IO in RPG - CPYF will work more directly with the file itself, I'm thinking - hard to beat IBM at their own game.

You could always use a prototyped form of QCMDEXC or the 'system' C-function - a comparison would be interesting. CPYF, of course, gives you lots of options - key range, other selectivity stuff.

Just curious, what is moving you away from native CL? RPG was never meant for running CL commands natively.

Hi
Below is my code. I am trying to replace copy commands program by writing RPGLE.
Is this a good design , will this run faster? I would like to know your
opinions and suggestions.
Thank you for your time. The number of records in AFILE usually more than a
million.



LOOP: RCVF
MONMSG MSGID(CPF0864) EXEC(GOTO CMDLBL(END))

CPYF FROMFILE(*LIBL/ABC.FILE) +
TOFILE(*LIBL/XYZ.MONY) MBROPT(*ADD) +
INCREL((*IF MID *EQ &YID) (*AND +
MNAME *EQ &YNAME) (*AND MACCT *EQ &YACCT))
CPYF FROMFILE(*LIBL/AFILE) +
TOFILE(*LIBL/BFILE) MBROPT(*ADD) +
INCREL((*IF PID *EQ &YID) (*AND +
PNAME *EQ &YNAME) (*AND PACCT *EQ &YACCT))

GOTO CMDLBL(LOOP)

END: CPYF FROMFILE(*LIBL/ABC.FILE) +
TOFILE(*LIBL/XYZ.MONY) MBROPT(*ADD) +
INCREL((*IF MID *EQ F))
TOFILE(*LIBL/XYZ.MONY) MBROPT(*ADD) +
INCREL((*IF MID *EQ F))
CPYF FROMFILE(*LIBL/AFILE) +
TOFILE(*LIBL/BFILE) MBROPT(*ADD) +
INCREL((*IF PID *EQ F))
